Langston Hughes
A Boy Like You
[Verse 1]
Somebody's going to be so handsome
Somebody's going to make me proud
Somebody's going to be so wonderful
He'll stand out from the crowd
Such a manly arm I'll have to lean on
When I walk down the avenue
Somebody will always be my standby
Who do you think it is?
Guess who?
[Verse 2]
Somebody I know will always love me
Ready with a helping hand
Somebody will never, no, not ever, forget
To care and understand
Yes, that is the grandest feeling
That any woman ever knew
To know I have somebody wonderful
To know I have a boy like you
To know I have a boy like you, son
