If you had a dollar And I had a dime I wonder if I could borrow yours As easy as you could borrow mine Because when you need my love And I give time after time And turn around and find me no return Then my friend, you've used my dimes If there's water in the pitcher And we both need a drink To stay alive my darling I need less water than you think But my love, my love, my love these things I say are true Be good to me as I am to you Oh, yeah Listen to this y'all Some people want But they don't know how to give They can do all the wrong in the world And have the nerve to not understand the meaning of another meal We start in the day Tomorrow and forever more If you can't find it in your heart to do for me Then, baby, just don't bother knockin' on my front door I want you to be good to me as I am to you You gotta be good to me, baby 'Cause there's nothin' left, there's nothin' left to do Be good to me, baby Be as good to me as I am to you These things, I say, I say are true, baby That you gotta be good to me as I am to you Oh, yeah Oh, yes
