Текст песни[]
If they could see me now
That little gang of mine
I'm lookin' at your smile, and it's a healthy sign
I'd like those stumble bums to see for a fact
The kind of top drawer, first-rate chum I attract
All I can say is, "Wow"
Just look at where I am
Tonight, I've landed, pow
Right in a pot of jam
What a setup, holy cow
They'd never believe it
If my friends could see me now
If they could see me now
That little dusty group
Traipsin' 'round this million dollar chicken coop
You're rubbin' elbows with the cream of the crop
Whoever said there ain't no room at the top
To think this famous man
Which I must say is he
Should pick an unknown gal
Which there's no doubt is me
What a setup, wow, holy cow
They'll never believe it
If my friends could see me
If they all could see me
If my friends could see me now
Take a look at me now
Take a look at me now
Take a look at me now
