It's A Wonderful World

The Moffatts It's A Wonderful World Lyrics
1.What A Wonderful World

Don't know much about history
don't know much biology
Don't know much about a science book
don't know much about the French I took
But I do know that I love you
and I know that if you love me, too
what a wonderful world this would be

Don't know much about geography
don't know much trigonometry
Don't know much about algebra
don't know what a slide rule is for
But I did know that one and one is two
and if this one could be with you
what a wonderful world this would be

Now I don't claim to be an 'A' student
but I'm tryin' to be
For maybe be being an 'A' student, baby
I can win your love for me

Don't know much about history
don't know much biology
Don't know much about a science book
don't know much about the French I took
But I do know that I love you
and I know that if you love me, too
what a wonderful world this would be

But I do know that I love you
and I know that if you love me, too
what a wonderful world this would be


2.Grandma

I've got a special friend
That I see each day
We like to sit and talk
Sometimes we just play
Do you know who I'm talkin' about
Gonna let my secret out

Grandma, that's who Grandma always takes the time
To make this young boy feel so fine
She's got her special ways
To chase the clouds away
And make the sun come out to shine Grandma
I'm glad that you're mine

When I head on out to school
She waves goodbye
And of course on Sunday nights
There's apple pie
I love the stories so
Of the days long ago

Grandma, I love you
Grandma always takes the time
To make this young boy feel so fine
She's got her special ways
To chase the clouds away
And make the sun come out to shine

Grandma I'm glad that you're mine
Grandma
I'm glad that you're mine
Grandma
I'm glad that you're mine


3.We're Off To The Rodeo

We're off to the rodeo
To watch the cowboy show
The thing that makes them different
Than what we've grown to know
'Cause they'll take their knocks
And get back up and try all over again
The cowboy's worst enemy
Is also his best friend

There's monster trucks and broncin' bucks
And mean old Brahma bulls
Calf ropin', hog tying
And chuck wagon pulls
He's got pretty girls by his side
Everywhere he goes
Cowboy stuff ain't all that bad
Only during the show

We're off to the rodeo
To watch the cowboy show
The thing that makes them different
Than what we've grown to know
'Cause they'll take their knocks
And get back up and try all over again
The cowboy's worst enemy
Is also his best friend

Well, the days are long on the summer tour
They never seem to end
Cowboy's always waitin'
For his hurts to mend
There is special days every now and then
He rides the pain away
With twists and bends he whups his friends
And takes home the pay

We're off to the rodeo
To watch the cowboy show
The thing that makes them different
Than what we've grown to know
'Cause they'll take their knocks
And get back up and try all over again
The cowboy's worst enemy
Is also his best friend


4.All I Have Is A Dream

I wake up every morning
With these memories in my head
I think of you all the time But most of all in bed
These old dreams that I'm having, having
Each and every night
Are just the things I've learned to do

Cause I can't hold you tight
I wake up every morning
With the fever and the cold
I've tossed and turned all night long
Together we'd be bold

But all I have is a dream
Yesterday I woke up
Thought I was drownin' in the rain
Tears runnin' down my cheeks
Reminders of the pain
My young heart's a yearning, yearning
To find a way
To make all my dreams come true
And hold you tight each day

I wake up every morning
With the fever and the cold
I've tossed and turned all night long
Together we'd be bold

But all I have is a dream
These dreams I have are special
'Cause a dream can come true
Yes, these dreams I have are special
'Cause when I dream
I dream that I'm with you

These old dreams in my head
May never go away
Runnin' around in my mind
Till nighttime turns to day
My young heart's a yearnin', yearnin'
To find a way
To make all my dreams come true
And hold you tight each day

I wake up every morning
With the fever and the cold
I've tossed and turned all night long
Together we'd be bold
But all I have is a dream

Yes, but all I have is a dream
Yes, but all I have is a dream


5.Itty Bitty Smile

She's got that itty bitty smile
Makes my heart go wild
And I feel like a puppet on a string
I'd surely walk a mile
Even change my style
In fact, I'd do almost anything
But I'm just too shy
To give it a try
And there's this long way to bring
My itty bitty heart under control
And give that girl a ring

Yes, that itty bitty girl with that itty bitty smile
Makes my heart go wild
But I just can't find the right place or time
To ask that girl of mine

Well, today at school you know I felt like a fool
When I blew that girl a kiss
Man she never even looked
She just grabbed her books
And she was gone along with my wish
Yeah, my heart was broke and that ain't no joke
'Cause that girl she's such a dish
But my itty bitty smile starts my itty b itty heart
Lovin' that girl again

Yes, that itty bitty girl with that itty bitty smile
Makes my heart go wild
But I just can't find the right place or time
To ask that girl of mine

Now I stayed in my room
But saw doom and gloom
From the pain I tried to hide
There's got to be a way for me to say
What I feel deep down inside
But I fear the pain'll be more o' the same
And I'll never say my time
Cause that itty bitty girl with that itty bitty sm ile
Is always on my mind

Yes, that itty bitty girl with that itty bitty smile
Makes my heart go wild
But I just can't find the right place or time
To ask that girl of mine

If she only knew what she meant to me
I know for sure that y'all would see
An itty bitty girl with that itty bitty smile
Sittin' right next to me


6.Bird Dog

Johnny is the joker (he's a bird)
A very funny joker (he's a bird)
But when he jokes my honey (he's a dog)
His jokin' ain't so funny (what a dog)
Johnny is the joker that's been tryin' to steal my baby (he's a
bird dog)
Johnny sings a love song (like a bird)

He sings the sweetest love song (you ever heard)
But when he sings to my gal (what a howl)
To me it's just a wolf dog (on the prowl)
Johnny wants to fly away and puppy love my baby (he's a bird
dog)

Hey bird dog, get away from my quail
Hey bird dog, you're on the wrong trail
Bird dog you better leave my lovey dove alone
Hey bird dog, get away from my chick
Hey bird dog, you better get away quick
Bird dog you better find a chicken little of your own

Johnny kissed the teacher (he's a bird)
He tip-toed up to reach her (he's a bird)
Well, he's the teachers pet now (he's a dog)
What he wants he can get now (what a dog)
He even made the teacher let him sit next to my baby

Hey bird dog, get away from my quail
Hey bird dog, you're on the wrong trail
Bird dog you better leave my lovey dove alone
Hey bird dog, get away from my chick
Hey bird dog, you better get away quick
Bird dog you better find a chicken little of your own


7.I Think I'm Falling In Love

I think I'm falling in love
With the girl next door
'Cause I'm getting the kind of feeling
That I've never had before
It's running through my fingers
It's tickling my toes
My body's feeling all messed up
And my heart is yelling whoa

Dad, tell me, is this what it's like to fall in love?
Dad, tell me, is this what it's like to fall in love?

Each and every night
I see her in my dreams
She's the prettiest girl
That I've ever seen
I'd like to take her for a walk
And hold onto her hand
Watch the birds fly above
And make castles in the sand

Dad, tell me, is this what it's like to fall in love?
Dad, tell me, is this what it's like to fall in love?


8.Dogs Is Dogs

Dogs is dogs
Chickens is chickens
You can break my heart
But it keeps on ticking away
Can't you hear what say
You can play your game
But this old dog don't play

A hog is a hog
A guinea is a guinea
Your old love
It ain't worth a penny to me

If you could only see
That this old dog don't need your company
Why don't you leave my heart alone
I don't roll over
Don't fetch no bone
I don't need your love now anyhow

Ain't you got better things to do
Than try and make me act for you
I don't dance no jig and honey
I don't chase nobody's cow

A snake is a snake
A lizard is a lizard
Loving you's a lot like sleeping in blizzard alone
Lord, I wish you were gone
Well you can keep on playing
But I ain't playing along

Why don't you leave my heart alone
I don't roll over
Don't fetch no bone
I don't need your love now anyhow
Ain't you got better things to do
Than try and make me act for you
I don't dance no jig and honey
I don't chase nobody's cow

A snake is a snake
A lizard is a lizard
Loving you's a lot like sleeping in blizzard alone
Lord, I wish you were gone
Well you can keep on playing
But this time I ain't playing along


9.Do Wah Diddy Diddy

There she was just a-walkin' down the street
singin' do-wah diddy-diddy down diddy-do
snappin' her fingers and shufflin' her feet
singin' do-wah diddy-diddy down diddy-do

She looked good, LOOKED GOOD
she looked fine, LOOKED FINE
she looked good, she looked fine
and I nearly lost my mind
Before I knew it she was walkin' next to me

singin' do-wah diddy-diddy down diddy-do
Holdin' my hand just as natural as can be
singin' do-wah diddy-diddy down diddy-do

We walked on, WALKED ON
to my door, MY DOOR
we walked on to my door
then we kissed a little more

Wo-o-o-oh, I knew we were falling in love
yes I did, and so I told her all the things
that I'd been dreamin' of
Now we're together her nearly every single day

singin' do-wah diddy-diddy down diddy-do
We're so happy and that how we're gonna stay
singin' do-wah diddy-diddy down diddy-do

I'm hers, I'M HERS
she's mine, SHE'S MINE
I'm hers, she's mine

wedding bells are gonna chime
Wo-o-o-oh, I knew we were falling in love
yes I did, and so I told her all the things
that I'd been dreamin' of

Now we're togther nearly every single day
singin' do-wah diddy-diddy down diddy-do
We're so happy and that how we're gonna stay
singin' do-wah diddy-diddy down diddy-do

I'm hers, I'M HERS
she's mine, SHE'S MINE

I'm hers, she's mine
wedding bells are gonna chime
Singin' do-wah diddy-diddy down diddy-do

do-wah diddy-diddy down diddy-do
do-wah diddy-diddy down diddy-do
