Ho Hey
Finding Love Amidst Life's Uncertainties
Lyrics
Ho
Expression of attention or calling out
Hey
-Ho
-Hey
-I been trying to do it right
Struggling to do things correctly
(Hey) I been living a lonely life
Living a solitary and possibly challenging life
(Ho) I been sleepin' here instead
Choosing to sleep somewhere different
(Hey) I been sleepin' in my bed
Sleeping in one's own bed
(Ho) I been sleepin' in my bed (hey ho)
Repetition of the sleeping situation, expressing uncertainty
so show me family
Desire for a sense of belonging and connection
(Hey) all the blood that I will bleed
Commitment to family and shared experiences
(Ho) I don't know where I belong
Feeling lost or out of place
(Hey) I don't know where I went wrong
Reflecting on past mistakes or misjudgments
(Ho) but I can write a song (hey)
Turning personal experiences into creative expression (songwriting)
I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart
Expressing a romantic connection and belonging
I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweet' (ho)
Repetition of the romantic connection, using 'ho'
Hey (come on now)
Encouraging or inviting someone to join
Ho
Expression of attention or calling out
Hey
-I don't think you're right for him
Suggesting that someone is not suitable for another person
(Hey) think of what it might have been if we
Reflecting on what could have been in a different situation
(Ho) took a bus to chinatown
Suggesting an alternative scenario involving travel
(Hey) I'd be standin' on canal (ho) and Bowery (hey)
Imagining a specific location (Canal and Bowery)
(Ho) she'd be standin' next to me (hey)
Imagining being with someone in that location
I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart
Reiteration of romantic belonging
I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart
Repetition of the romantic connection, using 'ho'
Love we, need it now
Expressing a need for love in the present moment
Let's hope, for some
Expressing hope for a positive outcome
'Cause oh, we're bleedin' out
Acknowledging pain or difficulties
I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart
Reiteration of romantic belonging
I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweet'(ho)
Repetition of the romantic connection, using 'ho'
Hey
Expression of attention or calling out
Ho
-Hey
