I'm Talking About You
Chuck Berry Lyrics
Let me tell you 'bout a girl I know
I met her walkin' down a uptown street
She's so fine you know I wished she was mine
I get shook up every time we meet
I'm talkin' 'bout you
Nobody but you
Yeah, I do mean you
I'm just trying to get a message to you
I tell ya now she looks so good
Got so much skills and such a beautiful will
She oughta be somewhere in Hollywood
I'm talkin' 'bout you
Nobody but you
Come on, give me a cue
So I can get a message to you
Let me tell you 'bout a girl I know
She's sittin' right here by my side
Lovely indeed that's why I asked if she
Promised someday she would be my bride
I'm talkin' 'bout you
I do mean you
Nobody but you
Come on, let me get a message through
