Possession Is Nine-Tenths of the Law

(Ronny Robinson - Carol Babcock)



You love her I know but I won't let you go

I just won't step out of the way

'Cause you're married to me and I won't set you free

Possession is nine-tenths of the law so they say.



I'll keep you as long as I possibly can

You were mine before she came our way

I refused to abide and I won't step aside

Possession is nine-tenths of the law so they say.



Forgive me for being so selfish

But for me there's just no other way

I just want to hold on do what's rightfully mine

Possession is nine-tenths of the law so they say.
