Shy Man Blues

Written by Leah Harris

 

I’m a woman, and I’ve got men on my mind

I’m a woman, and I’ve got men on my mind

Never ever would have thought

They would be so hard to find

 

I’ve been searching, I’ve been looking all around

I’ve been searching, I’ve been looking all around

But every time that I look at a man,

He starts staring at the ground

 

Why you got to be so shy

Oh, there ain’t no need to hide from me, no, no

Boy, I cannot read your mind

How am I supposed to know what I am doing wrong?

Seems there’s nothing I can do

But just play the shy man blues

 

I’ve tried being friendly, but he don’t want to smile back

I’ve tried being forward, but still he don’t respond to that

He don’t call me when I give him space

And now I’m running out of plans

 

Why you got to be so shy

Oh, there ain’t no need to hide from me, no, no

Boy, I cannot read your mind

How am I supposed to know what I am doing wrong?

Seems there’s nothing I can do

But just play the shy man blues
