I would be much obliged to hear about your lonesome childhood
And the way you were done in by the folks back home
But that's all over now
You know the future looks good
And I'm all it takes to make you happy

Sing a little song for me
The one about the day you gave up
Everything else, everything else, everything else

You know the reason that I know
You just can't live without me
Is the way you fall apart when I'm not there
Your hair gets snarled
And you cannot tie your shoes, my pretty baby
And I'm all it takes to make you happy

Sing a little song for me
The one about the day you gave up
Everything else, everything else, everything else

Sing a little song for me
The one about the day you gave up
Everything else, everything else, everything else

Just delight in what you do not know
The rest is hazy
And you know you're much too old to be free

If you tried to look beyond the deal
It would amaze me
Cause I'm all it takes to make you happy
I'm all it takes to make you happy
