  • [Chorus]
    Hey-ey-ey-hey, hey-hey, hey, what abou-out me
    I've got some feelin's on my mi-i-ind too
    Hey-ey-ey-hey, hey-hey, hey, what abou-out me
    I'd like to have a song to si-i-ing to

    Please let me in
    Where you're singin' your-our song
    And I'll just sit quiet
    I won't try to sing along
    You've got the warmest place
    That I've ever-er found
    Please let me in
    A-and I won't make a sound

    [Chorus]

    But don't you ask me
    To give you a-a song
    I won't know the words to use
    I won't know where-ere they belong
    But if you give me one of yours
    I will make it my-why own
    And it would be the sweetest so-ong
    That I have ever known

    [Chorus] Writer/s: SCOTT MCKENZIE
