Malvina Reynolds: Song Lyrics and Poems  

It's My Turn

Notes: words and music by Malvina Reynolds; copyright 1957, Malvina Reynolds, assigned to Schroder Music Company, 1963.

It's my turn, it's my turn, it's my turn to sing,
Everybody sings but me, I'm as quiet as can be.
Put me in the middle to sing a trooly-loo,
It's my turn, it's my turn, see what I can do.

It's my turn, it's my turn, it's my turn to dance,
Everybody steps but me, I'm as quiet as can be.
Put me in the middle to shake my little shoe,
It's my turn, it's my turn, see what I can do.

It's my turn, it's my turn, it's my turn to talk,
Everybody talks but me, I'm as quiet as can be.
Put me in the middle to say a thing or two,
It's my turn, it's my turn, see what I can do.
