Hey
I been trying to do it right
(Hey) I been living a lonely life
(Ho) I been sleepin' here instead
(Hey) I been sleepin' in my bed(Ho) I been sleepin' in my bed (hey ho)
so show me family
(Hey) all the blood that I will bleed
(Ho) I don't know where I belong
(Hey) I don't know where I went wrong
(Ho) but I can write a song (hey)
I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart
I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweet' (ho)

Hey
I don't think you're right for him

(Hey) I'd be standin' on canal (ho) and Bowery (hey)
(Ho) she'd be standin' next to me (hey)
I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart
I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart
Love we, need it now
Let's hope, for some
'Cause oh, we're bleedin' out
I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart
I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweet'(ho)

The above lyrics are from the song "Ho Hey" by Lakeside Revival. The song is about the search for love and belongingness, as the singer talks about his loneliness and his desire for a family. The song has a folk-pop style, which matches the theme of love and belongingness. The song begins with the choruses of "Ho Hey," which creates a rhythm that is upbeat and catchy.
The singer talks about his attempts to do things right but still feels alone, and he searches for a family he can belong to. The singer also mentions how he has been sleeping alone, which may represent his isolation or loneliness. He then talks about how he does not know where he belongs, which could mean that he has been trying to fit into different groups or that he has lost touch with who he is. He also talks about how he can write a song, which could show how he tries to express his feelings and find meaning through music.
The refrain of "I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart" could represent the singer finding love and a sense of belongingness. The lines "I don't think you're right for him, think of what it might have been if we took a bus to Chinatown" could represent the singer's desire for a particular person, but he realizes that they are not meant to be together. The line "Love we, need it now, let's hope, for some 'cause oh, we're bleeding out" could be interpreted as the singer's longing for love before he is emotionally drained.
