I Just Can't See For Lookin' Lyrics - Nat King Cole

(Robinson, Stamford) 

Maybe I talk too much, 

Maybe I've lost m' touch. 

I guess I don't know what's cookin' 

'Cause I just can't see for lookin'. 

Other boys have their chicks, 

Two, three, four, five or six. 

I don't seem to get a bookin' 

'Cause I just can't see for lookin'.

I'm kinda crazy, 

Like a daisy 

Up that well known tree, poor me. 

I'm sittin', hopin', 

Horoscopin' 

Won't some sista take a chance with me? 

I've been around the town, 

Everyone brings me down. 

I give up hope, I'm just a dope. 

There ain't no gals for hookin', 

I just can't see for lookin'.

I've been around the town, 

Everyone brings me down. 

I give up hope, I'm just a dope. 

There ain't no gals for hookin', 

I just can't see for lookin'... 

No, just can't see for lookin'... 

No, no.
