( Refrain : )
Don't take her she's all I've got
Please don't take her love away from me
I'm beggin' you friend
don't take her she's all I got
She's everything in life i'll ever need
She is life
When I want to live
She's everything to me in life
That life can give
She's my water
When i need a drink
She's the first thought in my mind
Each time I try to think
Let me tell you now friend
(Refrain)
She's my fingers
When I want to feel
She's the only thing in life
To me that's really real
She is love
She's all the love I know
She could kiss the ground in the winter time
And make a flower grow
Let me tell you now friend
(Refrain)
Let me tell you now friend
Don't take her she's all I've got
Well i said friend
Don't take her she's all I got
I'm beggin you friend
Don't take her she's all I got
(fade out)
