lyrics

Little baby was a lovely girl
Sweet brown eyes and long hair, so superb!
But every day the sunshine turned into rain
Everyday her dreams all washed away

Hit the streets when she was young
To survive she did what needed to be done
She came to me in that perfect way
But I messed up now shes gone away

You, oh you don't know what you got
You, oh you don't know what you want
Time and time again you just love 'em and leave 'em
Now you ain't got no more friends

Little sunshine was a precious child
She was always somewhere on my mind
I always wanted to take her by the hand
That little girl was always in my head

But the same old story played out
I loved and left her now I ain't got no more doubt
I been hustlin' my way through my whole life
Just a player and I'll never have a wife

You, oh you don't know what you got
You, ya you don't know what you want
Time and time again you just love 'em and leave 'em
Now you ain't got no more friends

Sunshine and lollipops
All my life's been a great big belly flop
Instead of giving the whole damn thing away
I've been wanting and taking it everyday

I'm gonna turn me a new leaf
Find me a girl that makes me so complete
Gonna get me a brand new fancy suit
Hit the road, I'm a new man and that's the truth.

You, oh you don't know what you got
You, oh you don't know what you want
Time and time again, you just love 'em and leave 'em
Now you ain't got no more friends

Oh my baby we got something good
Windows down and we're cruisin' like we should
Finally got you, you make me so complete
Let's pull over and baby let's hit the sheets

You're gonna be my only girl
You're gonna be my one and only girl
I'm gonna give you the whole thing, my whole world
Just you, my one and only girl.
