Lyric
Times are hard and rents are highWhat can the working girl do?But struggle through another dayThen I’ll take care of youNights are long and dreams are coldIf they’re all you wake up toBut should you rise with crying eyesI’ll take care of youSo let ’em talk about usLet ’em call us funny thingsPeople sometimes doI don’t care as longAs you know I love youYou know I doI’ll be there, but you might not see meIt’s not easy to get throughBut when the laughter dies, I’ll wakeI’ll take care of youDarling, I’ll take care of you
