A letra:

Hey baby, it's your time now
Hey baby, you made it somehow
Don't let nobody come and bring you down

Hey baby, you've got 'em on the run
You know, you've got 'em on the run
I know you, you have just begun

When you came into my life, hmm
My love, thought I would die
There's never been nobody like you
You take away these blues

Hey baby, you're looking real good
You know, you're looking real good
You make the day a song like I knew you would

When you came into my life
Lord, I thought I would die
I never met nobody like you
For telling my troubles to

Hey baby, you're looking real good
You know, you're looking real good
You make the day a song like I knew you would
