Let me tell you now, friend, don't take her, she's all I got
Please don't take her love away from me
I'm a-beggin' you, friend, don't take her, she's all I got
She's everything in life I'm a-ever gonna need
She is life when I wanna live
She's everything to me in life that's really real
She's my water when I need to drink
She's the first thought in my mind each time I try to think
Let me tell you now, friend, don't take her, she's all I got
Please don't take her love away from me
I'm a-beggin' you, friend, don't take he,r she's all I got
She's everything in life I'm a-ever gonna need
She is my finger when I wannna feel
She's the only thing in life to me that's really real
She is love, she's all the love I know
She could kiss the ground in the wintertime and make the flowers grow
Let me tell you now, friend, don't take her, she's all I got
Please don't take her love away from me
I'm a-beggin' you, friend, don't take her, she's all I got
She's everything in life I'm ever gonna need
Let me tell you now, friend, don't take her, she's all I got
I'm a-beggin you, friend, don't take her, she's all I got
Hear me talkin' now.............FADE
