GET UP JOHN Lyrics

I never thought I'd need you
But now I find I'm wrong
Come on back, sweet mama
Back where you belongI've rambled over town
To find that I can't win
Come on back and pick me up againNow, if I lose
(If I lose)
Let me lose
(Let me lose)
I don't care
(I don't care)How much I lose
If I lose a hundred dollars
While I'm tryin' to win a dime?
My baby, she's got money all the timeOf all the other gals I've known
There's none to take your place
'Cause when I get into a jam
They just ain't in the raceSo, now that you're back here
Let's take another round

With you here by my side
Babe, the deal just can't go downNow, if I lose
(If I lose)
Let me lose
(Let me lose)
I don't care
(I don't care)How much I lose
If I lose a hundred dollars
While I'm tryin' to win a dime?
My baby, she's got money all the timeNow, if I lose
(If I lose)
Let me lose
(Let me lose)
I don't care
(I don't care)How much I lose
If I lose a hundred dollars
While I'm tryin' to win a dime?
My baby, she's got money all the time
