Lyrics
TALKIN' 'BOUT YOU
(Written by Chuck Berry;
performed by hooyoosay)
Now, let me tell you 'bout a girl I know.
I met her walking down her home town street.
She's so fine, you know, I wish she were mine.
I get shook up ev'ry time we meet.
I'm talkin' 'bout you.
Nobody but you.
Yes, I do mean you.
I'm just try'n' to get a message to you.
Now, let me tell you 'bout a girl I know.
Ev'ry night she looks so good.
She's got that skill, and such a beautiful build.
She ought to be someone in Hollywood.
I'm talkin' 'bout you.
Nobody but you.
Yes, I do mean you.
So I can get a message to you.
I'm talkin' 'bout you.
Nobody but you.
Yes, I do mean you.
I'm just try'n' to get a message to you.
Now, let me tell you 'bout a girl I know.
Sittin' right here by my side.
Lovely indeed, that's why I asked her if she'd
promise me some day she'd be my bride.
I'm talkin' 'bout you.
Nobody but you.
Yes, I do mean you.
Come on and let me get a message to you.
