sometimes i wish i was somebody else sometimes i wish that i had more to give sometimes i wish that i was better than this honey let me sing to you oh let me sing oh let me sing honey let me sing to you wish i could buy you the finest of things wish i could give you diamonds and rings yes i m not a rich man and all i can bring is a song i can sing to you oh let me sing oh let me sing honey let me sing to you yes i ve been burned too many times i ve been accused of crossin the line the best i can do is explain in rhymes honey let me sing to you oh let me sing oh let me sing honey let me sing to you been around the world as much as i can if you buy me a ticket i would do it again yes it may be true that i wear myself thin but i can still sing to you oh let me sing oh let me sing honey let me sing to you i can t tell you the end with no lies don t even know about the end of tonight if we make it through til the morning light honey let me sing to you oh let me sing oh let me sing honey let me sing to you
