Somebody's gotta scratch your back, in the places you can't reach
Say something that'll make you laugh, when that's exactly what you need,
And I hope that's me, I hope that's me.
Somebody's gonna get dressed up and take you out for Valentine's,
Get lots of jealous looks thinking that's one lucky guy,
And I hope that's me, I hope that's me.
And you, you keep on wondering who, is gonna love you like I already
do, and I keep wondering when you'll see, that eventually.
Somebody's gotta throw on a coat
when your fever hits a hundred and two,
go down and pick your prescr i ption up,
and come home and fix you soup,
And I hope that's me, I hope that's me.
Somebody's gonna buy a ring,
Somebody's gonna make you cry,
Somebody's gonna lift that veil,
And get to look into your eyes,
And I hope that's me, I hope that's me.
Cause you, you keep on wondering who, is gonna love you like I already
do, and I keep wondering when you'll see, maybe eventually.
Old man on a front porch swing,
Looking back on his long life,
Glass of ice tea in his hand,
Other arm around his wife.
And I hope that's you, I hope that's me.
I hope that's you, and I hope that's me.
I hope that's you, and I hope that's me.
I hope that's you, and I hope that's me.
I hope that's me.
