Benjie
Ooh ooh
Ooh, I would have married you, Benjie
I can remember the hole in your breaches
Held together with some homemade stitches
You always thought I was too good for you, Benjie
They called 'raggedy little boy blue'
But oh, Benjie
I would've made it up to you, ooh
Ooh ooh
Ooh, I would have married you, Benjie
I can remember the long shirttails
Your mama made you wear from the rummage sales
You were the kid on the block who wore the mismatched socks
And you thought everybody looked down on you
But oh, Benjie
All the time my love just grew and grew, ooh
Ooh ooh
Ooh ooh (Aah)
Where did my little boy blue go?
If he could see me now, all grown up
Maybe I could make him stay
Benjie
If you'd only reached out and touched my hand
Oh, Benjie
I would've followed you around the world if I could get
Benjie (Benjie)
I would've made it up to you
Ooh ooh
Ooh, I would have married you
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Woo ooh ooh (Aah)
Oh, Benjie, mm mmmhmm (Ooh ooh)
Ooh, I
Ooh, I would have married you, Benjie
I can remember the hole in your breaches
Held together with some homemade stitches
You always thought I was too good for you, Benjie
They called 'raggedy little boy blue'
But oh, Benjie
I would've made it up to you, ooh
Ooh ooh
Ooh, I would have married you, Benjie
I can remember the long shirttails
Your mama made you wear from the rummage sales
You were the kid on the block who wore the mismatched socks
And you thought everybody looked down on you
But oh, Benjie
All the time my love just grew and grew, ooh
Ooh ooh
Ooh ooh (Aah)
Where did my little boy blue go?
If he could see me now, all grown up
Maybe I could make him stay
Benjie
If you'd only reached out and touched my hand
Oh, Benjie
I would've followed you around the world if I could get
Benjie (Benjie)
I would've made it up to you
Ooh ooh
Ooh, I would have married you
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Woo ooh ooh (Aah)
Oh, Benjie, mm mmmhmm (Ooh ooh)
Ooh, I
