Friend don't take her she's all I got
Please don't take her love away from me
I'm a 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 wanna live
She's everything to me in life that life can give
She's my water when I need to drink
She's the first thought in my mind each time I try to think

I'm asking you friend don't take her she's all I got
Please don't take her love away from me
I'm a beggin' you friend don't take her she's all I got
She's everything in life I'll ever need

She's my fingers when I wanna feel
The only thing in life to me that's really real
She is love she's all the love I know
She can kiss the ground in the wintertime
And make the flowers grow

Yes, I'm asking you friend don't take her she's all I got
Please don't take her love away from me
I'm a beggin' you friend don't take her she's all I got
She's everything in life I'll ever need

Listen to me now friend don't take her she's all I got
Friend don't take her she's all I got
