I'm Gonna Sew (500 Yards) To the tune of I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)

Verse 1
When I wake up, well I know I'm gonna sew,
I'm gonna sew the thread that goes along with you.
When I stitch up, yeah I know I'm gonna show,
I'm gonna show the pattern that I made for you.

Chorus
But I would sew 500 yards,
And I would sew 500 more,
Just to be the one who sewed a thousand yards
For the dress you wore.

Verse 2
When I bobbin', yes I know I'm gonna be,
I'm gonna be the one who threads the line for you.
When I cut out, yes I know I'm gonna be,
I'm gonna be the one with scissors flying true.

Chorus
But I would sew 500 yards,
And I would sew 500 more,
Just to be the one who sewed a thousand yards
For the dress you wore.

Bridge
Da-da-da-da (da-da-da-da)
Threadin' up (threadin' up!)
Da-da-da-da (da-da-da-da)
Sewin' on!

Verse 3
When I'm hemming, yeah, I know I'm gonna be,
I'm gonna be the one who makes it all for you.
When I'm pinning, yeah, I know I'm gonna be,
I'm gonna be the one who pricks a finger or two!

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I was inspired to create this earlier from an email subject line from a fabric store that had "I would sew 500 yard and I would sew 500 more" and off I went to expand on it. Not sure I am 100% percent happy with it and I may revise this at any time but so many things to do that this will be sufficient for now. :) I also plan to just use the chorus for a t-shirt design as well since that is something else I do. If all goes well I have a design ready for sale before the end of the day.
