(Carly Simon/Peter Wood)
He started a company
When he was a young man

handsome, and like a reed so tall
With a face like an old photograph
She would fall for him

Fall for him
She would fall


She wore her mother's @@#!tail dress
With saddle shoes
She was pretty and she was small

She worked the switchboard
Down the hall from him
Down the hall


[Chorus:]
He said: "Hello little woman"

She said: "Hello big man"
And that was how the wooing
And the winning began

He said: "Hello little woman"
She said: "Hello big man"


Of course New York in those days
Was carriage rides and matinees
He took her to a ball

At the Waldorf Astoria
He would fall for her
Fall for her, he would fall


[Chorus]


You could hear them laugh
As they danced in their room
And the shadows on the avenue

Rose into a jealous moon
Which swung low in the dawn like
To see what was going on with those two


you keep on expecting
Something to go wrong

And nothing does
They still live in the house
Where we were born

Pictures of us kids
Hanging up all over the walls


And some say he built his empire
For wealth and toil
But, if you ask him why

He'll say he did it all for her
All for her
All for her


[Chorus]
