Linda Ronstadt

Songwriter: Monty Siegel Herbert Magidson Sammy Fain

Producer: John Boylan George Massenburg

I'm a singer of love songs
Songs that are happy and gay
But how can I sing my love songs
My lover's gone away

I got the words
I got the tune
I've been rehearsing under the moon
But I got nobody to hear my song
So I'm hummin' to myself

I've got the place
I've got the time
I've got a lot of love words that rhyme
But I got nobody to hear my song
So I'm hummin' to myself

Mmm mmm
I guess it just had to be
Mmm mmm
Won't someone listen to me

I got the words and I got the tune
I'd like to croon it under the moon
But I got nobody to hear my song
So I'm hummin' to myself

Well I got the words and I got the tune
And I'd like to croon it under the moon
But I got nobody to hear my song
So I'm hummin' to myself
Mm, hummin' to myself
Well I'm hummin' to myself
I'm hummin' to myself
