BUT!! MAYBE THIS YEAR
(P. Welch / M. Merlo)


Jo Ann Campbell - 1960



I'm just a little bit older
I'm just a little bit bolder
A year ago the fellahs didn't notice me, but
Maybe this year

I'm not afraid to take chances
I wanta know what romance is
No one has ever tried to kiss me tenderly, but
Maybe this year

Well, maybe I'll find my one and only
Gee, how I hope I do
Maybe he'll be a little bit lonely
Lookin' for someone too

I think I'm just about ready
That's why I wanta go steady
I've never really had a boy in love with me, but
Maybe this year

(She's just a little bit older)
(She's just a little bit bolder)
(A year ago the fellahs didn't notice her, but)
Maybe this year

(She's not afraid to take chances)
(She wants to know what romance is)
(No one has ever tried to kiss her tenderly, but)
Maybe this year

Well, maybe I'll find my one and only
Gee, how I hope I do
Maybe he'll be a little bit lonely
Lookin' for someone too

I think I'm just about ready
That's why I wanta go steady
I've never really had a boy in love with me, but
Maybe this year

I've never really had a boy in love with me, but
Maybe this year

I've never really had a boy in love with me, but
Maybe this year

I've never really ............. FADE
