I Got You

Waylon Jennings · Legends [BMG] [2002]

(Ricci Mareno - Gordon Galbraith)



Waylon Jennings & Anita Carter



Don't get no attention from the people on street

They don't even see us they just step right on our feet

Just two unnoticed people in this great big world are we

And when I think about it yes that's all we'll ever be.



But I got you and you got me

And if they look they can see that we don't care

I got you and you got me

And baby that's all we will ever need.



--- Instrumental ---



Looking through the window of a fancy diamond store

Going window shopping for the things we can't afford

People all around us with their noses in the air

They walk right on by us just like we're not even there.



But I got you and you got me

And if they look they can see that we don't care

I got you and you got me

And baby that's all we will ever need.



--- Instrumental ---



I got you and you got me

And if they look they can see that we don't care

I got you and you got me

And baby that's all we will ever need.



--- Instrumental ---



I got you and you got me

And baby that's all we will ever need...
