[Intro]

I'd like to take just a little of your time today

To try to express to you the way that I feel

About just a few great men of our time

People like the late, great Sam Cook

I know you remember him

And I know you also remember the late, great Otis Redding

Known to so many as "The Big O"

And the man that, if you’re listening to your radio

And watching your TV

And reading your newspaper

You can see right now where he's celebrating his 50th anniversary

With a beautiful album

A great man, a great orchestra leader

Known to us as Guy Lombardo

And on a golf course in Spain a few days ago

Oh, we lost a man that the whole world loved so well

Known as Bing Crosby

And my mind begins to run back

Tupelo, Mississippi

Where a young man was born

Known to us as Elvis Prestley

Packed his bags one day

And decided that he would make his way to Memphis, Tennessee

And when he got here, he didn't stop

He began to work so hard

He traveled from place to place

All around the world

And if he knew then that he had to leave us

I believe he would’ve set out with his paper and pen

And if he had one word to say I believe it would be this

[Verse 1]

Everything I do, I try to do it good

Oh, I had lots of fun, and I've done the best I could

Someone call my name, I think it's a crying shame

'Cause I need, I need

I need just a little more time

Oh yeah, I need just a little more time

[Verse 2]

If I had the say, I'd pick another day

But I know I've got to go

Although I'd love to stay

There's a knock upon my door

I guess it’s time for me to go

But I need, oh, but I need

Yo, I need just a little more time

Let me say that again

’Cause I need just a little more time

[Outro]

Oh-hoo-hoo

Oh-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo

I need, I need a little more time (Little more time)

But I know it's time for me to go

Because there’s a knock on my door

But I need, I need a little more time (Little more time)

Oh, I've had lots of fun

Oh, I've done the best I could

But I need, I need a little more time (Little more time)

I belive I can sing to somebody

I believe I can raise up a bowed down head

All I need is a little more time
