You may think that I don't care 'cause I've been a rover here and ev'rywhere In Princeton you've (?) about me They never can say, girl But one thing I like about you You always do as you should , and that's why If I don't, if I don't have you Then for me there'll be nobody else, no And even if the river should run dry Then for me there'll be nobody else, no I may stay away for a night or two But all full of respect unto you, it's still new Though staying away make you feel mad, it make you feel blue But it's not that I really mean to embarrass you, 'cause darling If I don't, if I don't have you Then for me there'll be nobody else, no And even if the tree should touch the sky Then for me there'll be nobody else, believe me
