There's a lot of thing s I want,
a lot of thing s that I'd like to be
But girl, I don't foresee a rags
-to -riches story for me
There's just one little dream I've
got to make come true
There's just one round I've got
to win I can't be a loser with you
And baby, baby, just once in my life
Let me get what I want, girl,
don't let me down
Just once in my life, let me hold on to
On to the thing I found,
don't let me down
Baby, say that you'll be staying
Cause I couldn't face the day
If you weren't here by my side
And if you went away
I'd be left without any pride
I've given up on skiing
Cause everyone fell through
I've given up so many things
Don't ask me to give up on you
And baby, baby
Just once in my life
Let me get what I want
Girl, don't let me down
Just once in my life
Let me hold on to
Onto the thing I'm on,
don't let me down
Baby, say that you'll be
staying with me
That old pot of gold
Ain't so easy to find
But if you stand by me, girl,
I'll keep peace of mind.
I can't give you the world,
but I'll work hard for you, girl.
I'll work hard.
You're all I got.
Don't leave me, please don't leave me,
just do this for me
Once in my life, let me get what I want, girl,
don't let me down
Just once in my life, let me hold on to,
on to the thing I found
Don't let me down
Baby, say you'll be
stayin' here
Just once in my life
Let me get what I want, girl
Don't let me down
Just once in my life, let me hold on to,
on to the thing I love
Don't let me down
Baby, say you'll be with stay with me,
with me
Just once in my life, let me get what I want
Girl, don't let me down
Just once in my life
Let me hold on to, hold to
