I Just Can't See For Lookin'

Nat King Cole

5

(Robinson, Stamford)

Maybe I talk too much,

Maybe I've lost m' touch.

I guess I don't know what's cookin'

'Cause I just can't see for lookin'.

Other boys have their chicks,

Two, three, four, five or six.

I don't seem to get a bookin'

'Cause I just can't see for lookin'.

I'm kinda crazy,

Like a daisy

Up that well known tree, poor me.

I'm sittin', hopin',

Horoscopin'

Won't some sista take a chance with me?

I've been around the town,

Everyone brings me down.

I give up hope, I'm just a dope.

There ain't no gals for hookin',

I just can't see for lookin'.

I've been around the town,

Everyone brings me down.

I give up hope, I'm just a dope.

There ain't no gals for hookin',

I just can't see for lookin'...

No, just can't see for lookin'...

No, no.
