Since the day we met She was always direct Told me "us" was a passing phase But I did not believe her For my heart's a deceiver Telling me she'd come around some day I'M A WHIM, JUST A WHIM I'm a passing thought In the mind of the girl that I love Though her kisses are sweet And her body has heat I ain't much when push comes to shove I was singing my song When a man came along Said he liked the sound of my voice He had arms that could hold me Said he never would scold me Scooped me up and he gave me no choice I'M A WHIM, JUST A WHIM I'm a passing thought In the mind of the man that I love Though his kisses are sweet And his body has heat I ain't much when push comes to shove With a kiss on the cheek And a see you next week She hung me out with the linen to dry You might think it'd be better Just to up and forget her But forgetting is just loving a lie I'M A WHIM, JUST A WHIM I'm a passing thought In the mind of the girl that I love Though her kisses are sweet And her body has heat I ain't much when push comes to shove With the finest cigars and the fanciest cars He wrapped me up in a ribbon of gold But his presents so lavish Left my lonely heart famished He cooped me up in his castle alone I'M A WHIM, JUST A WHIM I'm a passing thought In the mind of the man that I love Though his kisses are sweet And his body has heat I ain't much when push comes to shove I'M A WHIM, JUST A WHIM I'm a passing thought In the mind of the man that I love Though her kisses are sweet And his body has heat I ain't much when push comes to shove I ain't much when push comes to shove I ain't much when push comes to shove I ain't much when push comes to shove
