Songtexte My Song (Single Version) - The 5th Dimension

Oh momma (momma)
Somebody done stole the words to my song
Oh momma (oh momma)
They stole my groove and my funky beat

Sing my melody all wrong (all wrong)
Yes, they did (yes, they did)
You know they changed it momma
They rearranged my song
You know I cried, oh my Lord
Somebody done stole the words to my song (momma)

Oh-oh-ohh, oh momma (momma)
You know it was just a short, simple song, yeah (just a simple, short song)
That's all it was

Didn't have no band on no harmony
Just tap your feet and hum along
Oh, to my simple, little song

And if I ever (if I ever)
Write a song again (write a song again)
You know I'll swear one thing to y'all
My new song won't have no words at all (no words at all)

Here, listen
Momma, someone done stole my words
Oh Lord
Somebody done stole my manly beat
Took my down-home groove and my funky beat

Momma, it was just a simple song
You can clap your hands to it, yeah
Or just hum along
Didn't have no time on
It didn't rhyme
You can sing my song, yeah
In any key
Put your own steps to it now
Use your own melody

I didn't care 'cause they changed my funky beat to rock and roll
But I cried when they changed the words
That was close to my soul

And if I ever write a song again
You know I'll swear one thing to y'all
My new song won't have no - at all (no words at all)

You know they stole my words
Lord have mercy
Has anybody seen my song?
Please everybody
Somebody done stole my funky groove
My word
Somebody done stole my melody
Has anybody seen my song?
Has anybody seen my song?

Hey momma!
I can't find it
I can't find it
Yeah!, Something's with my song
I got to find it
