I know I’m not the sort
Of guy who’ll sit and talk ’bout sport
It’s true.
And I know it seems unplanned
With my ukulele in my hand
But I’ve got something I’d like to ask you.
And if I had a pound for every
Time you turned me down
I’d have one pound fifty
In my bank account right now
the world can see,
we’re not that different you and me
so let’s get together, show the world
how different we can be
Oh, oh, oh.
And I know that in the past,
Your answer’s no when I have asked
But still
Hope springs eternal
That one day you’ll feel maternal
And there’s a hole within your soul that I can fill.
So I ask again
If you will go out with me
Even though I know deep down
What the answer’s gonna be
my girl until we die,
If I kill a man, be my alibi,
But please just let me know,
Tell me yes or no,
Oh, oh, oh.
