Lyrics Richard Thompson

Richard Thompson

It'll Be Me

Well if you hear somebody knockin' on your door

if you see something crawlin' across the floor

baby it'll be me and i'll be lookin' for you

If you see a head peepin' from a crawdad hole

if you see somebody climbin' up a telephone pole

baby it'll be me and i'll be lookin' for you

[bridge]

gonna look on the mountains

and in the deep blue sea

gonna search all the forests

and look in every tree

Well if you feel something heavy on your fishin' hook

and you see a funny face in your comic book

baby it'll be me and i'll be lookin' for you

If you hear a voice callin' out in the night

if you see something hangin' from a lamppost bright

baby it'll be me and i'll be lookin' for you

If you see someone lookin' in all the cars

if you see a rocket ship on its way to mars

baby it'll be me and i'll be lookin' for you

[bridge]

gonna look in the cities

where the lights are blue

gonna search the countryside

and all the haystacks too

If you see a new face on your totem pole

if you find a lump in your sugar bowl

baby it'll be me and i'll be lookin' for you
