(instrumental intro)
I couldn't do like I should
I wouldn't be understood
If it wasn't for you, sweet you
I'd be merrily in Spain
I would be living in pain
If it wasn't for you, sweet you
I would be worser than a vagabond, yas, yas
I couldn't rhyme, I couldn't write
I would be lonesome at night 'bout you, for you
I wouldn't know what to do
I'd be ever so lonesome and blue, blue, blue
If it wasn't for you, sweet you
'Yeah, get it now, join in'
(instrumental & kazoo)
I would be worser than a vagabond
I would be worser than a vagabond, yas, yas
I couldn't rhyme, I couldn't write
I'd be lonesome at night 'bout you, for you
I wouldn't know what to do
I'd be ever so lonesome and blue, yas, yas
If it wasn't for you, my sweet you-ooo.
