Song Key: E

Whatabouta whatabouta wow, whatabouta whatabouta wow. Whatabouta whatabouta wow, whatabouta whatabouta wow. If you're walkin' down the street and see a wow, then your heart start to wonda about the wow. If you gotta stop and think it's not a wow. But if you're eyes start to blink you gotta wow. Whatabouta whatabouta wow, whatabouta whatabouta wow. Whatabouta whatabouta wow, whatabouta whatabouta wow.

If you do a double take you gotta a wow. When you're heart starts to break you gotta a wow. If you fall asleep and see a wow, then you know for sure it's a wow. Whatabouta whatabouta wow, whatabouta whatabouta wow. Whatabouta whatabouta wow, whatabouta whatabouta wow.

When you see a wow you gotta wow. When you gotta wow you gotta wow. You know you gotta lotta what ya wow. When you see the one you gotta wow. I said whatabouta whatabouta wow, whatabouta whatabouta wow. Whatabouta whatabouta wow, whatabouta whatabouta wow.

Whatabouta whatabouta wow, whatabouta whatabouta wow. Whatabouta whatabouta wow, whatabouta whatabouta wow. When you listen to the band you gotta wow. When you clap your hands you gotta wow. When your baby starts to stand you gotta wow. When you find out you got fans you gotta wow. Whatabouta whatabouta wow, whatabouta whatabouta wow. Whatabouta whatabouta wow, whatabouta whatabouta wow.

I said wow wow wow. Whatabouta whatabouta wow. Whatabouta whatabouta wow, whatabouta whatabouta wow. Wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow
