Just Once In My Life Lyrics By The Righteous Brothers

    there’s a lot of things i want
    a lot of things that i’d like to be
    but girl i don’t forsee a rags to riches story for me
    it’s just one little thing i got to make come true
    it’s just one round i’ve got to win
    i can’t be a loser with you

    baby baby just once in my life
    i’m gonna get what i want girl don’t let me down
    just once in my life let me hold on to
    the good thing i found don’t let me down
    baby say that you’d be staying

    cause 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
    i’ve given up on schemes cause everyone 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
    i’m gonna get what i want girl don’t let me down
    just once in my life
    let me hold on to the good thing i found don’t let me down
    baby say that you’d be staying

    that old pot of gold ain’t so easy to find
    but if you’ll stand by me
    girl i’ll keep peace of mind
    i can’t give you the world
    but i’ll work hard for you girl
    i’ll work hard everyday all my life
    if you’ll say you won’t leave me
    baby don’t leave me
    please don’t leave me
    baby don’t leave me
    just 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’ve found don’t
    let me down
    baby say that you’ll be stayin’ mmmm
    oh yeah mmmm

    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’ve found don’t let me down fade
