Oh Me, Oh My Songtext
von Lonnie Holley & Michael Stipe

Oh me, oh my
Oh me, oh my
Oh me, oh my (oh)
Oh me, oh my

You must please listen
Because sometime is alright
To wander a little deeper
I suggest you all go as deep as you can
Because I, I believe

The deeper we go
The more chances there are
For us to understand
Understand "oh me′s"
Understand "oh my's"

Oh me, oh my
Oh me, oh my


Sometimes I sit alone in the corner
It′s chill through now for my eyes
I'll let 'em fall, I′ll let ′em fall
I will let them fall

(Oh me, oh my)
(Oh me) oh me, (oh my) oh my
(Oh me) oh me, yeah, (oh my) oh my
(Oh me, oh my) oh my

Every now and then we get a chance
To show our abilities
I remember when I was a little, bitty boy
Is that there was this song
Left every voice insane
But as we grow, and we learn each other more and more and more
We learn how precious life is
And the "oh me" and "oh my" turns into the "oh us"
Oh-oh-oh-oh, ah


I thought about how grand mama used to be down on her knees
Grand mama used to not even be able to get up off her knees after giving birth to
Baby after baby, after baby, after baby
And now I understand why she say these words
"Oh me" (Oh me) and "oh my" (oh my)
In a graceful manner and a thankful way (oh me)
Every day that we had (oh my)

(Oh me, oh my)
(Oh me) oh me, yeah, (oh my) oh my
(Oh me) oh me, (oh my) oh my
(Oh me, oh my)
