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 anyway
I 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
Make us a place of our own

[Chorus] :
I 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 you

I 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 you

[Chorus]

Now 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 loving and you´ve got my song

I 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 do

[Chorus] x 2
