Last week i wrote the lyrics and just now added a tune to this song. I hope you’ll listen to it and tell me if it’s worth keeping… Of course this is a rough draft – I think I only used two chords through out the whole thing…
Ten years ago – or so
I saw a little boy at the grocery –
about 3 years old – with his momma –
Had his arms stretched straight out
– like he was a aer-o-plane
Leaning in towards his momma
and circlin’ her – and man,
I mean like Pearl Harbor baby…
And every go ’round he’d say
“woooooo hoooooooo” –
really loud –
like he was a siren or something….
So I looked at my honey and said
“Oh baby, I got’s to do that –
Why can’t I do that?”
And my honey said
“Johnny, you can’t do that…
Now you’ll scare that little boy.
You a grown man, you got to reserve, baby,
you got to reserve…”
“Ok baby, guess I can do that.
I’ll try it anyway…
I won’t stretch out my arms
like a aer-o-plane –
I won’t even circle that
little boy’s momma,
(much as I might want to…)
no, no….
I’z gonna be a good boy,
yeah that’s right.
But honey, you know
That “woo hoo” is deep inside, baby
and you know it got to come out…”
Woo hoo, baby got to hear me
woo hoo, need ya’ real near me
Woo hoo, woo hoo
baby, woo hoo…
Yeah, every little boy want to know
how he gon’ get that prety little girl
So listen boy, this my song
I gonna help you right along
Woo hoo, baby, woo hoo little girl
woo hoo, darlin, woo hoo
Now ev’body says you got to know –
and ev’body knows you got to say:
Woo hoo, little girl
woo hoo, baby doll
woo hoo, yeah, woo hoo
you the prettiest thing I ever seen
come over here and shake that thing
I think you know what I mean, sugar
so come over here and shake that thing.
Yeah woo hoo baby, woo hoo darling
You know you make me move, baby
so shake it up over here in my groove…….
That’s right, just like that,
woo hoo darlin’, woo hoo
Little boy – when you done with aer-o-planes,
give this here a whirl – become a man…
You just say woo hoo, little darlin’
woo hoo……
