Brenda Holloway – I'll Be Available lyrics

In case you wanna ask me for a date now, any day, any time
For my answer you don't have to wait now; let me give you mine
(I'll be available) every day
(I'll be available) whenever you say
When every ship in the sea has become unsailable
You can call on me; I'll be available

You can date every girl in the town now, every girl you see
I don't mind, I'm the patient kind; when you get around to me
(I'll be available) when you're all alone
(I'll be available) just ring my phone
When you need a love that is unfailable
You can call on me; I'll be available

I don't care if you neglect me, just as long as I have my turn
& whatever I'm doing when you call me
I have to drop it, I have to stop it

You can write every girl in the whole wide world sweet love letters
When they hurt your pride & you decide you can't do no better
(I'll be available) & it's no lie
(I'll be available) I'm your old stand-by
When US Mail is no longer mailable
You can call on me; I'll be available, oh yeah

(instrumental)

Well now, when US Mail is no longer mailable
You can call on me
(I'll be available) when everyone else puts you down
(I'll be available) whenever you want me around
(I'll be available) when everyone else leaves you behind
(I'll be available) whenever you make up your mind
...& fade
