There's a somebody I'm longing to see,
I hope that she turns out to be
Someone who'll watch over me.

I'm a little lamb who's lost in the wood.
I know I could always be good
To one who'll watch over me.

Although I may not be the man some girls think of as handsome.
To her heart I carry the key.
Won't you tell her please to put on some speed,
Follow my lead, oh, how I need
Someone to watch over me.

Won't you tell her please to put on some speed,
Follow my lead, oh, how I need
Someone to watch over me.
