Oh Randy, if they knew
I think they'd take me away
Just for loving you
All alone in my own quiet way
That's the way that I want it

Wish I could see you now
You and your cherry black eyes
My heart would never lie down
'Cause that's the way my arrow flies
And that's the way that I want it

You never said it would rain
You only told me that the sun would come again
You never said it would rain

Oh Randy, if you did
It wouldn't mean a thing
It wouldn't hurt me a bit
'Cause only you can break my wings
And that's the way that I want it
Yes, that's the way that I want it

You drew my face in the sand
And ever since that day you made me what I am
You drew my face in the sand
Oh Randy, if I could
There's nothing I wouldn't give
To live with you for good
'Cause that's the way I'd like to live
And that's the way that I want it
Yes, that's the way that I want it

The way that I want it… oh Randy, Randy
I want it… oh Randy, Randy
I want it… oh Randy, Randy
I want it… oh Randy, Randy
I want it… oh Randy, Randy
I want it… oh Randy, Randy
I want it… oh Randy, Randy
