Nat King Cole Lyrics

"I'm a Shy Guy" lyrics


(Nathaniel Cole)


I'm just a shy guy,
My, I'm a 'fraid-to-try guy
No lie.
There's a gal that I idolize
But I just can't seem to hypnotize.


And when she pets me,
You betcha, it gets me.
And everytime I hold her hand,
I'm just too shy to say the things I plan.


Everytime she's close to me,
My heart is filled with ecstasy,
And like a dope, I let the chance slip by.


There, I should have told her then
But all I did was sit and grin,
And I ended up so mad that I could cry.


'Cause I'm a shy guy
Wish I was a sly guy
Then I could say, "Baby, baby, I love you"
Just like those guys in moving pictures all do.


~interlude~


I'm just a shy guy
Wish I was a sly guy
Then I could say, "Baby, baby, I love you"
Just like those guys in moving pictures all do.
