Amy

by Tom Parker

I love Amy, yes I do
If you knew her you would too
I love Amy, in an old-fashioned way
Let me tell you

Amy's got that special flair
Ruby lips and auburn hair
I love Amy, but does Amy love me
My sweet Amy

Amy could have any guy that she wants
And I hope that someday she'll want me, someday
I'm a nice feller, but how should I tell her
How much I care, should I say, I'll say

If you see her on the street
You might say now, "Ain't she sweet!"¹
Oh-whoa Amy, will you ever be mine
Darling Amy
Oh-whoa Amy, will you ever be mine

Amy Amy, oh
Amy Amy

Now, Amy could have any guy that she wants
And I hope that someday she'll want me, someday
I'm a nice feller, but how should I tell her
How much I care, should I say, I'll say

I love Amy, yes I do
If you knew her you would too
I love Amy, in an old-fashioned way

Oh-whoa Amy will you ever be
Oh-whoa Amy could you ever be
Oh-whoa Amy will you ever be mine

Once in love with Amy²
