EMMY LOU
(The Dark Bob)

from the album, "When I Grow Up to Be a Man" (2001)

Emmy Lou
I really wanna sing with you
There's Nina and there's Cindy and there's Barbara
But I really want you

We'll sing in Amarillo
Oh your voice is soft like a pillow
Or maybe in Las Vegas - Emmy Lou you're so outrageous
C'mon sing with me

Oh, oh, Las Vegas
Oh, oh, Las Vegas

Emmy Lou
You really haven't given me a clue
Will you be my backup?
Can I depend on you?

The make up is right
The stage light hits the wing
Yeah Emmy Lou steps up to my side
And she begins to sing

Oh, oh,Sin City
Oh, oh, one of these days

Emmy Lou
I really wanna sing with you
If I ever win an Emmy
Emmy Lou, I hope the Emmy is you

I know there's Joni and there's Janis and there's Jacki
But I really want you
There's Lena and Aretha and Diana
But I really want you

Oh, Emmy Lou
I really wanna sing with you

There's Laurie and Loretta and Mariah
But I really want you (yeah you)
There’s Vicki and Belinda and Lucinda
But I really want you (Emmy Lou)

There’s Karen and Fiona and Petula
Dolly, Debbie and Madonna (they’re not you)
There’s Courtney and Celine and Exene
But I really want you (yeah you)

There’s June and Rosanne and Cher and Dinah
But I only want you
Oh, Emmy Lou
I really wanna sing with you
