Baby, say that you'll be stayin'
Girl, don't let me down
Baby, say that you'll be stayin'
Just once in my life let me hold on to
The good thing I've found, don't let me down
If you won't leave me baby, don't leave
But girl I don't foresee a rags to riches story for me
Just once in my life let me hold on to
Baby, say that you'll be stayin'
The good thing I've found, don't let me down
Once in my life let me get what I want
There's a lot of things I want, a lot of things that I'd like to be
Oh yeah
There's just one little dream I've got to make come true
But if you'll stand by me, girl, I'll keep peace of mind
Please don't leave me oh no don't leave
Just once in my life let me hold on to
Just do this for me, baby
I've given up so many things, don't ask me to give up on you
Just once in my life let me hold on to
That old pot of gold ain't so easy to find
Yes, I'll work hard everyday all my life you will see
The good thing I've found, don't let me down
Just once in my life let me get what I want
And if you went away then I'd be left without any pride
And baby, baby
And baby, baby

Just once in my life let me get what I want
Girl, don't let me down
'Cause I couldn't face the day if you weren't here by my side
The good thing I've found, don't let me down
Just once in my life let me get what I want
Girl, don't let me down

I've given up on schemes 'cause every one fell through
Girl, don't let me down
I can't give you the world but I will work hard for you, girl
There's just one round I've got to win, I can't be a loser with you
