Ely Joe Wishin` For You Lyrics

Wishin` For You Lyrics

All the street lights on Main Street know my shadow

 All the stars up in the sky know all my wishes

 And the sidewalk on your street know my footsteps

 And the stars keep tellin me I'm repetitious

 

 I keep wishin for you

 I keep wishin for you

 It's more than you'd ever do in a pinch

 Honey it's a cinch

 To keep wishin for you

 

 All the boys down at the poolhall got my number

 Some gal up in some hotel got my shoes

 Ah but I still got my last, bottom, dollar

 Lucky me I never lost more than I could lose

 

 I keep wishin for you

 I keep wishin for you

 It's more than you'd ever do in a squeeze

 It ain't nothin' to sneeze at

 Wishin for you

 

 I keep wishin for you

 I keep wishin for you

 It's more than you'd ever do all alone

 On and on and on

 I keep wishin for you



All the dogs down at the dumpyard can hear me whistle

As I walk through my hometown wild as a stranger,

Oh, but the kiss of love is hotter than a pistol, 

And I think it's safe to say I love the danger.



I keep wishin for you 

I keep wishin for you 

It's more than you'd ever do, in the wind,

And when the wind don't blow even then,

I keep wishin for you.
