You Was

If you were to ask me who the sweetest one I knew was

I'd say you was

If you were to ask me who my favorite point of view was

I'd say you was

When you're not near my heart is inclined to waste away

But when you're here the funny part is

My heart is a spherical lyrical miracle all the day

If you were to ask me who the apple of your eye was

I'd say I was

If you were to ask me who your sweet potato pie was

I'd say I was

Supposing you paid a visit to a certain preacher

Supposing you overheard me practicing "I do"

And you were to ask me who the bride and groom to be was

I'd say we was me and you

I've got a heart that hollers when you're not close to me

But when you're near it sort of follows

There isn't a lovelier heaven or bubblier place to be

If I were to ask you who the girl I'd glorify was

I'd say I was

If I were to ask you who the beau I'd like to tie was

I'd say I was

Supposing you heard that I was shopping for a trousseau

Supposing I brought you something old and something new

And you were to ask us who the bride and groom to be was

I'd say we was me and you

You was, you was, you was, I was, we was

Me and you
