Song Lyrics - I Got You Babe
They say we're young and we don't know,
Won't find out until
we grow
Well I don't know if that's all true
'Cause you got me, and baby I got you
Babe...I got you babe, I got you babe
They say our love won't pay the rent,
Before it's earned, our
money's always spent
I guess that's so, we don't have a pot,
But at least I'm sure of all the things
I got
Babe...I got you babe. I got you babe
I got flowers in the spring.
I got you to wear my ring
And when I'm sad, you're a clown,
And if I get scared, you're always around
Then they say your hair's too long,
But I don't care, with you
I can't go wrong.
Then put your little hand in mine,
There ain't no hill or mountain we can't
climb
Babe...I got you babe, I got you babe
I got you to hold my hand
I got you to understand
I got you to walk with me
I got you to talk with me
I got you to kiss goodnight
I got you to hold me tight
I got you, I won't let go
I got you who loves me so
Babe...I got you babe
I got you babe
I got you babe
