There's a somebody I'm longing
to see.
I hope that she turns out to be
Someone who'll watch over me.
I'm a little lamb who's lost in
the wood.
I know I could, could always be
good
To one who'll watch over me.
Although I may not be the man
Some girls think of as handsome,
But to her heart I'll carry the
key.
Won't you tell her, please, to
put on some speed,
Follow my lead, oh how I need
Someone to watch over me.
Won't you tell her, please, to
put on some speed,
Follow my lead, oh how I need
Someone to watch over me.
