Don't Give Up on Me

Dean Martin · Lay Some Happiness On Me: The Reprise Years (Repri [2002]

(Ben Peters)



I think of all the things I promised you

There's still so many things I didn't do

I know it hasn't been the way that you expected it to be

But I need you girl don't give up on me.



It never crossed my mind what you go through

For giving me each time for hurting you

I guess a foolish man just takes for granted that's how it should be

But I need you girl don't give up on me.



You make up for all the bad in me with all the good in you

All the wrong I've ever had in me can't match the good in you

So maybe given time I'll come around to what I oughta be

But I need you girl don't give up on me.



So maybe given time I'll come around to what I oughta be

But I need you girl don't give up on me...
