Steve Forbert – Ya Ya (Next to Me) lyrics

Hey, what's a boy to do, ya, ya?
What's a boy to do, baby?
What's a boy to do?
I wanna be with you, ya ya
I wanna be with you, baby
I wanna be with you

Yeah, it's a big old world that we live in
With some cruel and crazy ways
It's a small little world that we live in
It's getting smaller everyday

I want you next to me, ya ya, say, ya
Next to me

Hey, you come from New Orleans, ya, ya
You come from New Orleans, baby
You come from New Orleans

Yeah, you with your boots and jeans, ya, ya
You with your boots and jeans, baby
You with your boots and jeans

I know your rode them horses fast and free
When you were somewheres around eighteen
Now you live down in New York City
Babe and It's a whole 'nother knock down scene
I want you next to me
Ya ya say yea
Next to me

Little girl - you with you're long blonde hair baby
Little girl - yes I saw ya standing there
And I stopped and I stood and I stared
I want you next to me
Ya ya say yea
Next to me

Hey - you in your blue bayous ya ya
You with your blue bayous
You with your blue bayous

Yeah - you got the kisses too ya ya
You got the kisses too baby
You got the kisses too

And when I walk to you and when I talk with you
I feel like something's surely right
I want you close to me as your supposed to be
I mean completely day into night

I want you next to me
Yeah yah say yeah
Next to me
Next to me
Yeah yah say yeah
Next to me
Alright alright alright alright alright alright alright
Next to me
