There's a lot of things I want,
a lot of things that I'd like to be
But girl, I don't foresee
A rags -to -riches story for me
There's just one little dream
I've got to make come true
There's just one round I've got to win
I can't be a loser with a deal
And baby, baby, just once in my life
Let me get what I want, girl,
Just once in my life, let me hold on to
This good a thing I found,
Baby said that you'd be staying
Cause I couldn't face the day
If you weren't here by my side
Cause everyone fell through
I've given up so many things
Don't ask me to give up on you
This good a thing I've found,
Baby said that you'll be stay
That old pot of gold, ain't so easy to find
I can't give you the world,
but I will work hard for it, girl
Yes, I'll work hard for my life
Just do this for me, baby
Once in my life, let me get what I want
Just once in my life, let me hold on
Till it's good and big I'm found
