You'll Let Me Know

Don't turn me away, oh no

Please gimme a part to play

Don't tell me to go, oh no

And please don't say you'll let me know

Please don't say you'll let me know

Please don't say you'll let me know

I walk the streets with a hopeful smile

It hurts my feet but it's all worthwhile

I hardly eat but I don't need food

Upon a stage maybe in the nude

I could be so good, I could be the best

I wanna be a star brighter than the rest

Gimme half a chance, Mister, gimme a chance

Please gimme a chance

Don't turn me away, oh no

Please gimme a part to play

Don't tell me to go, oh no

And please don't say you'll let me know

Please don't say you'll let me know

Please don't say you'll let me know

I practice hard each and every day

It hurts my fingers, nearly wears them away

But I don't give a damn 'cause I feel so free

Upon a stage the world is waiting for me

I can see it now wearing Yves Saint Laurent

Or maybe Mary Quant or maybe nothing in front

Gimme half a chance, Mister, gimme a chance

Please gimme a chance

Don't turn me away, oh no

Please gimme a part to play

Don't tell me to go, oh no

And please don't say you'll let me know

Please don't say you'll let me know

Please don't say you'll let me know

I'm getting older day by day

I'm nearly seventeen the time is running away

I gotta make it soon, gotta make it soon

If you don't help me mister I don't know what I'll do

I could be so good, I could be the best

I wanna be a star brighter than the rest

Gimme half a chance, Mister, gimme a chance

Please gimme a chance

I could be so good, I could be the best

I wanna be a star brighter than the rest

Gimme half a chance, Mister, gimme a chance

Please gimme a chance

Don't turn me away, oh no

Please gimme a part to play
