Everybody’s got someone
it ain’t too hard to see
that everybody’s got someone
everyone but me
she was just sixteen
but I took my chance
I asked her I said
‘baby, would you like to dance?’
she said ‘OK’
but I could see it in her eye
and I knew that she had herself
some other guy
and ain’t it true that
Everybody’s got someone
it ain’t too hard to see
that everybody’s got someone
everyone but me
I went for a walk the other day
and saw all the couples in the park
and I thought it’d be nice to stay
with someone ’til way after dark
but they all went passing by
and me all left alone
so I stood up and blew a sigh
and went on walking home
because
Everybody’s got someone
it ain’t too hard to see
that everybody’s got someone
everyone but me
(from “Part Five: An Album Full”)
My ‘oldie’. A nice, little bouncy song – the type you would’ve heard on AM radio in 1961.
