A Little Something

I was a sailor
When my heart bled dry
Woke up with nothing
Underneath suburban skies

Became a soldier
In a far-war-thrill
Oil and dollars
Nearly got me killed
Oh yeah

Caught in the middle of the black and blue
My heart weighs heavy every time I think of you

Oooh, oooh
Is there something I can say?
Oooh, oooh
A little something so I know you're alright
It's alright
Oooh, oooh
Is there something I can do?
Oooh, oooh
A little something just to make you feel right
It's alright

She is a dancer on a Broadway show
Says I can make it
But it's wearing me out
And I feel so low

I come with nothing
But my conscience is clear
Your superstition seems to strangle the world
But it's all fear
He said
It's not real

Stuck for a reason and I don't know why
My heart feels heavy every time you pass me by

Oooh, oooh
Is there something I can say?
Oooh, oooh
A little something so I know you're alright
It's alright
Oooh, oooh
Is there something I can do?
Oooh, oooh
A little something just to make you feel right
It's alright

Oooh, oooh
Oooh, oooh

So let me see that smiling face
Cause nothing ever takes your place

Oooh, oooh
Is there something I can say?
Oooh, oooh
A little something so I know you're alright
It's alright
Oooh, oooh
Is there something I can do?
Oooh, oooh
A little something just to make you feel right
It's alright
