Take a look [A] down your highway, tell [B] me what you see.
[E] Well [A] if you're down my way, [B] you know it could well be me.
I [A] stood up on your car, all that work.
[B] And a man and a man on one [A] knee, really calling for you.
[B] And it's so damn easy to see, [A]

You know [B] we must surely belong, [A]
birds of a feather.
