I don't know how to make lots of money
I got debts that I'm trying to pay
I can't buy you nice things like big diamond rings
But that don't mean much anywayI can't give you the house you've been dreaming
If I could, I would build it alone
I'd be out there all day just hammering away
To make us a place of our ownI will write you a song
That's how you'll know
That my love is still strong
I will write you a song
And you'll know from this song
That I just can't go on without youI don't know that I'd make a good soldier
I don't believe in being violent and cruel
I don't know how to fight but I'll draw blood, tonight
If somebody tries hurting youI will write you a song
That's how you'll know
That my love is still strong
I will write you a song
And you'll know from this song
That I just can't go on without youNow that it's out on the table
(It's out on the table)
Both of us knew all along
(Knew all along)
I've got your lovin' and you've got my songI don't know how to make lots of money
I don't know all the right things to do
I can't say where we'll go but the one thing I know
Is how to be a good man to you until I die that's what I'll doI will write you a song
That's how you'll know
That my love is still strong
I will write you a song
And you'll know from this song
That I just can't go on withoutI will write you a song
(I will write you a song)
That's how you'll know
That my love is still strong
(Love is still strong)
I will write you a song
And you know from this song
That I just can't go on without you
