about
I wrote this song after watching the first episode of Ken Burns documentary on the history of country music. The episode featured a lot of Jimmie Rodgers songs. That inspired me to dig out the ol' banjo and write a silly love song.
lyrics
In case you’re wondering who I'm thinkin’ of
Well, yer the 1, yer the 1
Do you wanna know who I’m dreaming of?
Yer the 1, yer the 1, yer the 1
Do you wonder who I obsess about?
Well, yer the 1, yer the 1
Do you wanna know who I can’t be without?
Yer the 1, yer the 1, yer the 1
You’re the one I need here next to me
And to stay for all eternity
Do you wanna know who this song’s about?
Yer the 1, yer the 1 yer the 1
Hee hee hee
Hee hee hee hee hee hee
Hee hee hee hee hee hee
Do you wonder who is so beautiful?
Well, yer the 1, yer the 1
Do you wanna know why my heart is full?
Yer the 1, yer the 1, yer the 1
You’re the one I wish that I could be
Just to see just what you see in me
Have you figured out who this song’s about?
Yer the 1, yer the 1, yer the 1
Hee hee hee
Hee hee hee hee hee hee
Hee hee hee hee hee hee
Are you wondering who I wanna kiss?
Well, yer the 1, yer the 1
If you ever leave, who is it I’ll miss?
Yer the 1, yer the 1, yer the 1
Yer the one I long for endlessly
And whose touch I need so desperately
If you still don't know who this song’s about?
Yer the 1, yer the 1, yer the 1
Hee hee hee
Hee hee hee hee hee hee
Hee hee hee hee hee hee
Hee hee hee
Hee hee hee hee hee hee
Hee hee hee hee hee hee
