words and music by Rick Paul
From the single Just Another Song
When I was just a little boy, my mama sang to me
She sang me lullabies and happy melodies
But every time I asked her, “Please, Ma, what’s this song?”
She said, “I’ll sing it one more time then you can sing along”
‘Cause this is just another song I want to sing to you
Another melody, another line or two
Sometimes it may be happy, sometimes it may be blue
But it’s just another song I sing to you
When I went to grade school, my teacher sang this song
I tried so very hard just to sing along
“What is this song?” I asked her, she gave this reply
She said, “I’ll sing it one more time, then you can give a try”
‘Cause this is just another song I want to sing to you
Another melody, another line or two
Sometimes it may be happy, sometimes it may be blue
But it’s just another song I sing to you
Now every chance I get, I sing this song to you
I’ll sing it in the day and sing it all night through
And every time you ask me, “Please, now, what’s this song?”
I’ll say, “I’ll sing it one more time then you can sing along”
‘Cause this is just another song I want to sing to you
Another melody, another line or two
Sometimes it may be happy, sometimes it may be blue
But it’s just another song I sing to you
And this is just another song I want to sing to you
Another melody another line or two
Sometimes it may be happy, sometimes it may be blue
But it’s just another song I sing to you
Oh, it’s just another song I sing to you
Yeah, it’s just another song I sing to you
