  • (Ho hey, ho hey)

    (Ho) I been trying to do it right
    (Hey) I been living a lonely life
    (Ho) I been sleepin' here instead
    (Hey) I been sleepin' in my bed
    (Ho) I been sleepin' in my bed (Hey ho)

    (Ho) So show me family
    (Hey) All the blood that I will bleed
    (Ho) I don't know where I belong
    (Hey) I don't know where I went wrong
    (Ho) But I can write a song (Hey)

    I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart
    I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweet' (Ho)

    (Hey, ho hey)

    (Ho) I don't think you're right for him
    (Hey) Think of what it might have been if we
    (Ho) Took a bus to Chinatown
    (Hey) I'd be standin' on canal (Ho) and Bowery (Hey)
    (Ho) She'd be standin' next to me (Hey)

    I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart
    I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart

    Love we, need it now
    Let's hope, for some
    'Cause oh, we're bleedin' out

    I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart
    I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweet' (Ho hey, ho hey) Writer/s: Jeremy Fraites, Wesley Schultz

  • Rotunda from Tulsa, OkWhat a great song! It was all over the radio & I went out & bought their album "The Lumineers" because of "Ho Hey." What a great surprise when I heard the other songs on the album were all great. This band is awesome. And the blonde lead singer can "rub my cantaloupes anytime!"
