Is there a word where the first word is ever contracted? Its usually the second word ...

There are also few, if any, contractions that utilize slang words such as ya.
By your definition ya're would seem more appropriate, ya think?
Oh well, I'm uh, sitting here la, la
Waiting for my ya, ya, a hm, ahm
Oh, sitting here la, la
Waiting for my ya, ya, uh

It's interesting that this song was written nearly 50 years before this Yaya hit the big time. Ya vol.
