Someone to Watch over Me

Willie Hugh Nelson (pronounced /wɪli nɛlsən /; born April 30, 1933) is an American country music singer-songwriter, as well as an author, poet, actor, and activist. The critical success of the album Shotgun Willie (1973), combined with the critical and commercial success of Red Headed Stranger (1975) and Stardust (1978), made Nelson one of the most recognized artists in country music. He was one of the main figures of outlaw country, a subgenre of country music that developed at the end of the 1960s as a reaction to the conservative restrictions of the Nashville sound. Nelson has acted in over 30 films, co-authored several books, and has been involved in activism for the use of biofuels and the legalization of marijuana. more »

There is somebody I'm longing to see
I hope that she turns out to be
Someone who'll watch over me

I'm a little lamb who's lost in the wood
I know I could always be good
To one who'll watch over me

Although she may not be
The girl some men think of
As pretty, to my heart
She carries the key

Won't you tell her please
To put on some speed follow my lead
Oh how I need someone to watch over me

Although she may not be
The girl some men think of
As pretty, to my heart
She carries the key

Won't you tell her please
To put on some speed follow my lead
Oh how I need someone to watch over me
Someone to watch over me
