Phil Gawen - Don't Give Up on Me Lyrics

Baby, oh maybe we can make it to the big time
If we change our ways, with a little imagination
We could save dimes
I'll stop drinking with the boys
Throw away my old toys
Get back into school
And join the night class blues
And maybe, oh baby
We could finally be our own fools

Baby, oh maybe I could make enough to work it out
And when graduations here
Oh baby, I could finally get a real job
Regular wages for a man in a suit
I'd buy you a Mercedes and invest all our loot

Baby, oh maybe we could finally make our own rules
All it takes is for you to say, I believe in you
I will help and pray
We'll motivate each other every night and every day
Never hold each other down
So baby, don't give up on me

Baby, oh last time I let you down and you know it
But I've changed now
With a little bit of help
We'll beat the bad times

I can feel it in my bones
I think my luck is on a roll
The black cat hasn't crossed me
So, don't say I'm being bold
Baby, I'm tired of being everybody's fool

The higher I climb, the deeper I fall
Unless I can rid myself of feeling so small
My ego is zero, but my heart's in the game
I need some encouragement
So, don't give up on me
