[Verse 1]
(I)
My, my, my, my
(Oh, I)
Can turn a gray sky blue
(I)
You see I can make it rain
When I want it to
(Oh, I)
Can build a castle
From a single grain of sand, yeah
(I)
You see, I can make a ship sail
On dry land, tell 'em, yeah
[Verse 2]
I'm a happy man with all the powers that I possess, yeah
Girl, you're the key to my happiness and I
(Can't get next to you, babe)
Ooh, Lord
(Can't get next to you)
I've been trying a long time
(Can't get next to you, babe)
I, I, I don't know what to do
(Can't get next to you)

Let me say

(Oh, I)
And I can live forever if I so desire, yeah

I'm happy man with all the powers that I possess, yeah
'Cause, girl, you're the key

(Can't get next to you)
Oh, come on
[Verse 5]
Let me tell you that I
(I)
Can turn back the hands of time
You better believe I can
(Oh, I)
You see, I can make the seasons change
Just by waving my hand
Let me say
(I)
I can change anything from old to new, girl
(Oh, I)
Yeah
And all the things I wanna do the most
You see, I'm unable to do, yeah
[Verse 6]
Unimportant, oh, these things
That I'm trying to do here today
Girl, you see, I
(Can't get next to you, babe)
I've been trying a long time
(Can't get next to you)
Oh, somebody ought to help me
(Can't get next to you, babe)
Oh, let me, let me go
Can't get next to you)
Woo, woo
[Verse 7]
Let me
(I)
Lord, I've been working on it, baby
I've been thinking about it
(Oh, I)
But you see, I've been trying to call you all day long
But you see I don't have your phone number honey
(I)
I've been, I've been thinking about you, baby
Something awful, you see, and I
(Oh, I)
Sometimes I feel like I wanna moan about it
And I, I just don't know what to say
And I say, yee
(I)
