Paul McCartney

by Paul McCartney and Eric Stewart

CAN I GET YOU TO GIVE ME A MINUTE OF YOUR TIME?
CAN I GET YOU TO SLIP ME THE ANSWER?
CAN I GET YOU TO SLOW ME A LITTLE OF YOUR MIME?
YOU WERE ALWAYS A VERY GOOD DANCER.

I'D BE HAPPY TO SHOW YOU A BIT OF WHAT I FOUND,
I'D BE HAPPY TO SHARE IN ITS BEAUTY.
I'D BE HAPPY TO LAY LOW INEVITABLY BOUND,
I WOULD ONLY BE DOING MY DUTY.

I WAIT,
I WAIT,
I CAN WAIT.

I CAN WAIT BACK IN THE BAR,
I CAN WAIT, I CAN WAIT,
I CAN WAIT BACK IN THE CAR,
I'LL BE WAITING FOR YOU.

STRANGLEHOLD, YOU KNOW YOU'VE GOT ONE ON ME,
I DON'T WANNA GO WITHOUT YOU.
STRANGLEHOLD, YOU'VE GOT ME WHERE YOU WANT ME,
BUT I WANNA KNOW MORE ABOUT YOU,
I WANNA KNOW MORE ABOUT YOU.

OO, OO, OO, OO, OO, OO.

ARE YOU WILLING TO WAGER A LITTLE OF YOUR LIFE?
ARE YOU WILLING TO TAKE SUCH A GAMBLE?
ARE YOU READY TO WALK ON THE EDGE OF THE KNIFE?
THEN I THINK WE CAN SKIP THE PREAMBLE.

I WAIT,
I WAIT,
I CAN WAIT, I CAN WAIT.

I CAN WAIT BACK IN THE BAR,
I CAN WAIT, I CAN WAIT,
I CAN WAIT BACK IN THE CAR,
I'LL BE WAITING FOR YOU.

I'LL BE WAITING...

STRANGLEHOLD, YOU KNOW, YOU'VE GOT ONE ON ME,
I DON'T WANNA GO WITHOUT YOU.
STRANGLEHOLD, YOU'VE GOT ME WHERE YOU WANT ME,
AND I WANNA KNOW MORE ABOUT YOU,
I WANNA KNOW MORE ABOUT YOU.

OO, OO, OO, OO, OO, OO.

I CAN WAIT,
I CAN WAIT BACK IN THE BAR,
I CAN WAIT, I CAN WAIT,
I CAN WAIT BACK IN THE CAR.
I'LL BE WAITING FOR YOU.
