Lyrics Patti LaBelle – Shy
Text:
If you see a guy and you kinda like him
He really, really catches your eye
Don’t be afraid to show him how you feel
You see him every morning
Don’t think you’re out of place if you ask him his name
‘Cause you’re so shy
(Shy, shy, you’re so shy)
You’re so shy
(Shy, shy)
You’re never gonna get a guy that way
Stop being so shy
I know your mama told you
A certain way a lady should act
But that don’t work all the time
Now ain’t that a fact
Sneaking, sneaking up over your paper
Your heart is beating, it’s beating so fast
Maybe he’d invite you to lunch
Would you go if he’d ask?
Oh, you’re so shy
(Shy, shy, you’re so shy)
You’re so shy
(Shy, shy)
You’re never gonna get a man, don’t you understand
Stop being so shy
Have you ever thought
He might be lonely too
Just like you
This could be the start of a romance that will last forever
Why don’t you drop your hankie
Maybe he will pick it up
And you’ll get the chance to say ‘Thank you, sir’
The beginning of a conversation
You can talk about this and that
Don’t play hard to get
Just try and relax
‘Cause you’re so shy
(Shy, shy, you’re so shy)
You’re so shy
(Shy, shy)
Oh, you’ll never get a guy like that
Stop being so shy
Have you ever thought
He might be lonely too
Just like you
This could be the start of a romance that will last forever
You’re so shy
Shy
Oh, you’ll never get a man
You’re so shy
Oh, you’ll never get a guy like that, no
You’re so shy
Oh, you’ll be staying home all alone
You’ll never get a guy
You’ll never get a man
You’ll never get anything
Stop being so shy
Oh, you’ll never, never
Oh, you’ll never, never
