I Just Can’t See For Lookin’ Lyrics
Nat King Cole
(robinson, stamford)
Maybe I talk too much,
Maybe Ive lost m touch.
I guess I dont know whats cookin
cause I just cant see for lookin.
Other boys have their chicks,
Two, three, four, five or six.
I dont seem to get a bookin
cause I just cant see for lookin.
Im kinda crazy,
Like a daisy
Up that well known tree, poor me.
Im sittin, hopin,
Horoscopin
Wont some sista take a chance with me?
Ive been around the town,
Everyone brings me down.
I give up hope, Im just a dope.
There aint no gals for hookin,
I just cant see for lookin.
~interlude~
Ive been around the town,
Everyone brings me down.
I give up hope, Im just a dope.
There aint no gals for hookin,
I just cant see for lookin...
No, just cant see for lookin...
No, no.
