LEMME BE YOUR KINGFISHER
Kingfisher sittin’ on a telephone wire.
He knows why I’m a-callin’ you, he knows I’m on fire.
He swoops down to catch a fish, he knows what to do;
He knows what I’m a-wantin’ babe is nothin’ but you.
If I could be a kingfisher, I’d be king of this stream;
I could fish where I wanted, I could dream a big dream.
But I’m just a man wantin’ nothing’ but you;
Lemme be your kingfisher, lemme dream for two.
Kingfisher waitin’ on a nice juicy trout.
He says you know I love you, but you’ve got a little doubt.
Won’t you ask Mother Kingfisher, she’ll tell you true,
That I ain’t been catchin’ nothing’ cause I wanna catch you.
If I could be a kingfisher, I’d be king of this stream;
I could fish where I wanted, I could dream a big dream.
But I’m just a man wantin’ nothing’ but you;
Lemme be your kingfisher, lemme dream for two.
Kingfisher, kingfisher, sittin’ on a wire;
He can fly that high, maybe not much higher.
Lemme fly so high, lemme fly so true.
Lemme be your kingfisher be my queenfisher, too.
If I could be a kingfisher, I’d be king of this stream;
I could fish where I wanted to and dream a big dream.
But I’m just a man wantin’ nothing’ but you;
Lemme be your kingfisher, lemme dream for two.
Kingfisher sittin’ on a telephone wire.
He knows why I’m a-callin’ you, he knows I’m on fire.
He swoops down to catch a fish, he knows what to do;
He knows what I’m a-wantin’ babe is nothing’ but you.
Nothin’ but you.
Lemme be your kingfisher, be my queenfisher, too.
Lemme be your kingfisher, be my queenfisher, too.
