Smith Hurricane Super Hits Of The 70's：Have A Nice Day, Volume 10 Oh, Babe, What Would You Say? Have I a hope or half a chance, To even ask if I could dance with you? Yoo-hoo, Would you greet me or politely turn away? Would there suddenly be sunshine on a cold and rainy day? Oh, babe, what would you say? For there are you, sweet lollipop, And here I am with such a lot to say. Hey-hey, Just to walk with you along the Milky Way, To caress you through the nighttime, Bring you flowers every day.
