(Jerry Williams/Gary U.S. Bonds)

Let me tell you now friend
Don't take her she's all I've got
Please don't take her love away from me
I'm beggin' you friend
Don't take her she's all I've got
She's everything in life I'm a-ever gonna need.

She is life when I want to live
She's everything to me in life that's really real
She's my water when I need a 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've got
Please don't take her love away from me
I'm a-beggin' you friend
Don't take her she's all I've got
She's everything in life I'm a-ever gonna need.

She's my fingers when I want to 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 a flower grow.

Let me tell you now friend
Don't take her she's all I've got
Please don't take her love away from me
I'm beggin' you friend
Don't take her she's all I've got
She's everything in life I'm a-ever gonna need

Let me tell you now friend
Don't take her she's all I've got
Let me tell you now friend
Don't take her she's all I've got...
