Little Ditty
This is just a little ditty
A tune that's kinda pretty
I've always had a thing for singin' those
It'll never top the chart
But it just might win her heart
Sprinkle stardust in her eyes and put some twinkle in her toes
Yeah, it's just a little ditty
In a style that's kinda witty
That sentimental diehards still admire
Cuz I keep it short and sweet,
and I build some charming heat
As we climb towards the bridge to join the choir.
And who still believes romance can warm a cold hard world
But if she gave me half a chance
I'd gladly risk it all
And freely take the fall
For a good old-fashioned girl
Yeah, it's just a little ditty
With a phrase or two that's tricky
Flowin' by with such apparent ease
Ah, but every verse I wrote
Was founded on the hope that it might
Make her notice itty bitty me.
And who still believes romance can warm a cold hard world
But if she gave me half a chance
I'd gladly risk it all
And freely take the fall
For a good old-fashioned girl
Yeah, it's just a little ditty
With a phrase or two that's tricky
Flowin' by with such apparent ease
Ah, but deep in every note,
Is a tiny ray of hope that she will
See through my transparent strategy
Cuz the lowdown nitty gritty
Is that this here little ditty
Is the only way I know
to make the lady notice itty bitty me.
