How Could I Let You Get Away Lyrics - The Spinners

Like howdy doo 

your tin soldiers, your clowns too 

they're all laughing at you 

i'm laughing at you too 

Like basketball 

5 fouls and that was all 

the games you really knew, yeah 

why couldn't i beat you 

In the middle of the room 

got no time to count my sheep today 

how could i let you get away 

when i knew i'd need somebody soon (hoo... hoo...) 

how could i let you get away 

when i knew i'd need somebody soon 

Like mother goose 

winds you up then turns you loose 

block 10 was beatin' 2 

and i can't tell green from blue, no, no 

Like cat and mouse 

games of chase instead of house 

i get so mad at you 

like parents often do 

In the middle of the room 

got no time to count my sheep today (baby) 

how could i let you get away 

when i knew i'd need somebody soon (hoo... hoo...) 

how could i let you get away (baby) 

when i knew i'd need somebody soon 

Ooh... baby 

how could i let you get away, baby 

when i knew i'd need somebody soon, yeah 

hey, baby 

i didn't count my sheep, i let my woman weep, baby 

i knew down inside i'd need somebody soon 

like mother goose i done let you loose 

and need you, baby, yeah 

ooh-wee, i need somebody soon 

help me now, keep my feet on the ground 

my baby
