Love Story
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I like your brother, I like your mother
And I like you, and you like me too
You get a preacher, I'll get a ring
We'll hire a band with an accordian, a violin
And a tenor who can sing.
You and me, you and me baby, you and me
You and me, you and me baby, you and me
You and me, you and me baby, you and me
You and me, you and me baby.
We'll have a kid or maybe we'll rent one
He's got to be straight, we don't want a bent one
He'll drink his baby brew from a big brass cup
Someday he might be president, if thing's loosen up.
You and me, you and me baby, you and me
You and me, you and me baby, you and me
You and me, you and me baby, you and me
You and me, you and me baby.
I'll take a train into the city every mornin'
You may be plain, but I think you're pretty in the mornin'
Some nights we'll go out dancin'
If I am not to tired
Some nights we'll spend romancin'
Watchin' the late show by the fire.
(Reprise)
Our kids are grown, with kids of their own
They'll send us away to a little home in Florida
We'll play checkers all day till we pass away...
