Y Songtext
von Mark McGuinn

Sometimes these thoughts run away with me
And I can′t seem to catch up with what they mean
Like why is he grass never grow like a weed
And why do we speak in ABC's?
At 1 2 3 it′s a mystery you see

Like why the song is in an open G?
And why are the pieces of the land all are free?
And why these words all right mean
And why-e-i-e-i-o, why do you love me?


Sometimes I'm smart why ain't I smarter?
Why do I make the easy so much harder
And why does a dog not live in a tree
And why won′t a cat bring a paper to me
You must agree it′s a mystery indeed

And why does a chicken want to cross a street?
Why men would down way up the creek
And why this song barely have a melody
And why-e-i-e-i-o, why do you love me?

Y to the X to the Y to the D to the O to the L to the O to the V to the E e-y-e-y-o,
Why do you love me?

And why does a chicken want to cross a street?
Why men would down way up the creek
And why this song barely have a melody
And why-e-i-e-i-o, why do you love me?
