Lyrics Harry Nilsson

Harry Nilsson

Love Story

I like your brother and I like your mother

I like you and you like me too

We'll get a preacher, I'll buy a ring

We'll hire a band with an accordion

And a violin and a tenor who can sing.

You and me, you and me, baby

You and me, you and me, you and me, baby

You and me, you and me, you and me, baby

You and me, you and me, you and me.

We'll have a kid or maybe we'll rent one

He's got to be straight 'cause we don't want no bent one

He'll drink his baby brew from a big brass cup

Some day he may be president if things loosen up.

You and me, you and me, baby

You and me, you and me, you and me, baby

You and me, you and me, you and me, baby

You and me, you and me, you and me.

I'll take the train into the city every morning

You may be plain but I think you're pretty in the morning

Some nights we'll go out dancin' if I am not too tired

And some nights we'll sit romancin', watchin' the late show by the fire.

When our kids are grown, with kids of their own

They'll send us away to a little home in Florida

We'll play checkers all day 'till we pass away.
