Little Jeannie

Elton John

(Elton John/Gary Osborne)



Oh little Jeannie

You got so much love, little Jeannie

And you take it where it strikes

(and) give it to the likes of me

Oh little Jeannie

She got so much love, little Jeannie

So I see you when I can

You make me all a man can be



And I want you to be my acrobat

I want you to be my lover

Oh there were others who would treat you cruel

And oh oh Jeannie

You were always someone's fool



Little Jeannie

You got so much time, little Jeannie

Though you've grown beyond your years

You still retain the fears of youth

Oh little Jeannie

You got so much time, little Jeannie

But you're burning it up so fast

Searching for some lasting truth



And I want you to be my acrobat

I want you to be my lover

Oh there were others who would treat you cruel

But oh oh Jeannie

I will always be your fool



INSTRUMENTAL



And I want you to be my acrobat

I want you to be my lover

Oh there were others, and I've known quite a few

But oh oh Jeannie

I'm still in love with your



Stepped into my life from a bad dream

Making the life that I had seem

Suddenly shiny and new

Oh Jeannie

I'm so in love with you



Stepped into my life from a bad dream



REPEAT
