Beach Boys - Just Once In My Life lyrics

G. Goffin/C. King/ Phil Spector

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

I've given up on schemes cause every one fell through

I've given up so many things, don't ask me to give up on you

And baby baby

Just once in my life let me get what I want

Girl don't let me down

Just once in my life let me hold onto

A good thing I found

Don't let me down

Baby say that you'll be staying

I couldn't face the day if you weren't here by my side

And if you went away then I'd be left without any pride

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 you

And baby baby

Just once in my life let me get what I want

Girl don't let me down

Just once in my life let me hold onto

A good thing I found

Don't let me down

Baby say that you'll be staying

Every pot of gold ain't so easy to find

And if you'll stand by me

Girl I'll give you some of mine

I can't give you the world

But I'll work hard for you girl

Well I'll work hard

Every day baby don't leave me

Now say you won't leave me

Do this for me baby

Once in my life let me get what I want

Girl don't let me down

Just once in my life let me hold onto

A good thing I found

Don't let me down

Baby say that
