Well, this song right here is another one I wrote for me
Because I have a message that I wanna get out there folks
And I want you to listen real close to what this song says, and, uh
If you want you can do this
I've made a living in this great land
Playing drums and singing in a gospel band
And even though I'm happy by doing what I do
There's something that I think I need to share with you
I've been keeping it a secret for a long time
But now I'm gonna get it off my mind
When is Bill gonna put me on a video?
Or does he think that my singing will completely steal his show?
Oh, to see me sittin' in that crowd would make my mom so proud
So, Bill, will you put me on your video?
♪
Now, you may think I'm joking, but this is for real
I really wanna sing for a million dollar, Bill
I wouldn't hold back, I'd give it all I've got
And I could sing it so low if I was put on the spot
If he called me up tomorrow, I'd go runnin'
Just to make it to the next day for homecoming
Sit down, lady
So, Bill, a-would you put me on your video? That's right
Or do you think that my singing will completely steal the show?
Oh, to see me sittin' in that crowd
Would make my mom so proud
So, Bill, will you put me on your video?
Come on, boys!
Now, he don't have to pay me
Well, I would do it all for free
Just give me some of those tapes to sell
And we'll make video history
Hang on
Folks, I'm sensing a real spirit of giving in here today
Are you feeling it?
Is it just me, I guess? Hmm
You know-, well, you're not feeling it much, are you?
You know people, I-, oh, lookie here
Is that for me or Steve?
You know people-, look here
Hey, you know what, folks, right now, people are coming
Anybody else? Right now, real quickly
Oh, thank you, honey, yes, thank you very-
Come on now, real quickly, I'm not gonna drag this out
Anybody else? Come on
Folks, don't cheat yourself out of a blessing here today, come on!
I see that hand, thank you so much
You know people ask all the time, they say
"Has Bill heard the song? Is he-is he gonna have ya? What does he know about it?"
I'm here to tell you he knows about the song, he's heard it
And I haven't talked to him directly, but our lawyers are talking
Now, I think we're gonna be able to settle out of court, so don't worry about it
No, it doesn't scare me, though, 'cause if he walks in this theatre, and walked right here and looked at me
And had that look on his face, I'd just look at him and say
"Hey, Bill"
When you gonna put me on your video?
Come on
Or do you think that my singing will completely steal the show?
Oh, to see me sittin' in that crowd would make my mom so proud
So, Bill, will you put me on your video?
Oh, come on, Bill
Oh, will you put me on your video? Yeah
Ladies, thank you
One more time
Thank you everybody
