(nathaniel cole) I'm just a shy guy, My, i'm a 'fraid-to-try guy No lie. There's a gal that i idolize But i just can't seem to hypnotize. And when she pets me, You betcha, it gets me. And everytime i hold her hand, I'm just too shy to say the things i plan. Everytime she's close to me, My heart is filled with ecstasy, And like a dope, i let the chance slip by. There, i should have told her then But all i did was sit and grin, And i ended up so mad that i could cry. 'cause i'm a shy guy Wish i was a sly guy Then i could say, "baby, baby, i love you" Just like those guys in moving pictures all do. ~interlude~ I'm just a shy guy Wish i was a sly guy Then i could say, "baby, baby, i love you" Just like those guys in moving pictures all do.
