Lyrics

(Nathaniel Cole) I'm just a shy guy, My, I'm a 'fraid-to-try guy No lie. There's a gal that I idolize But I just can't seem to hypnotize. And when she pets me, You betcha, it gets me. And everytime I hold her hand, I'm just too shy to say the things I plan. Everytime she's close to me, My heart is filled with ecstasy, And like a dope, I let the chance slip by. There, I should have told her then But all I did was sit and grin, And I ended up so mad that I could cry. 'Cause I'm a shy guy Wish I was a sly guy Then I could say, "Baby, baby, I love you" Just like those guys in moving pictures all do. ~interlude~ I'm just a shy guy Wish I was a sly guy Then I could say, "Baby, baby, I love you" Just like those guys in moving pictures all do.
