Give me twenty-five dollars
|
And drive me around downtown
|
Solve all my problems
|
DonĄŻt let me lose what IĄŻve found
|
Give me good lovinĄŻ
|
And seal it with a kiss
|
Then drop me off where the musicĄŻs loud
|
But it wonĄŻt get no better than this
|
|
Take me to a party
|
Where IĄŻm the only man
|
With fifty women waitinĄŻ on me
|
Who say they understand
|
Feed me milk and honey
|
Give me a story that IĄŻll never miss
|
Let me get one good nightĄŻs sleep
|
But it wonĄŻt get no better than this
|
|
Give me clear vision
|
And donĄŻt let me miss anything
|
IĄŻll take the bird that whistles
|
And the world on a string
|
Fill my fist full of money
|
In these troubled times
|
And let me share the water
|
With all, all of mankind
|
|
Give me back my youth
|
And donĄŻt let me waste it this time
|
Stand me up at the golden gates
|
At the front of the line
|
Let me lie in the sunshine
|
Covered in the morning mist
|
Then show me something I ainĄŻt never seen
|
But it wonĄŻt get no better than this
|
|

No Better Than This
