[Verse 1]
They say we're young and we don't know
Won't find out until we grow
Well I don't know if baby that's true
Cause you've got me baby, I've got you
[Chorus]
Babe, I've got you babe
I've got you, babe
[Verse 2]
They say our love won't pay the rent
Before it's earned our money's always spent
I guess that's so, we don't have a lot
At least I'm sure we've all the things we've got
[Chorus]
Babe, I've got you babe
I've got you, babe
[Verse 3]
I got flowers in the spring
I got you to wear my ring
And when I'm sad, you're around
And when I get scared you're always around
So let them say your hair's too long
I don't care, with you I can't go wrong
Then put your little hand in mine
There ain't no hill or mountain we can't climb
[Chorus]
Babe, I've got you babe
I've got you, babe
I've got you, babe
[Bridge]
I got you to hold my hand
I got you to understand
I got you to walk with me
I got you to talk with me
I got you to kiss goodnight
I got you to hold me tight
I got you and I won't let go
I got you to love me so
[Outro]
I got you, babe
