Lord knows that I love you, why can't we get along ? 

Lord knows that I love you, why can't we get along ? 

You don't have to run around, doin' things you know is wrong 



I'll do anything in this world to please you, but I won't let you run around 

I'll do anything to please you darlin', but I won't let you run around 

Last time I held on to you, this time I might put you down 



So long, so long baby, there's no future for me and you 

So long pretty baby, no future for me and you 

I love you too much to let you run around the way you do
