Be Mine Tonight Songtext

Well the very first time that I saw you there
You know I couldn′t believe my eyes
I thought I was the winner of the Price is Right
And they let me keep every prize

I've never been famous as a ladies man
I′m not known as a crazy guy
In fact I've never made the papers over nothin' at all
I think it′s time somebody gave me a try

Baby, be mine tonight
And this ol′ world will turn out alright
Just to find you took a whole lifetime
I could lose you in a minute's time
Be mine tonight--baby, be mine tonight
Be mine tonight--baby, be mine tonight

I don′t know if you've ever been in love before,
But I think this is my very first time
I wish someone could tell me what my next move is
I′m afraid I'm falling way behind


I know you′ve been around about as much as I have
When the lights go out we'll see
You can further your education all your life
Honey, just don't make a fool out of me

Baby, be mine tonight
And this ol′ world will turn out alright
Just to find you took a whole lifetime
I could lose you in a minute′s time
Be mine tonight--baby, be mine tonight
Be mine tonight--baby, be mine tonight

I've been left alone
I′ve been on the streets so long
I feel like I'm falling
Or sinking in quicksand
Throw me out a line
Be a special friend of mine
I would love to take you home,
If I only had a home


Baby, be mine tonight
And this ol′ world will turn out alright
Just to find you took a whole lifetime
I could lose you in a minute's time
Be mine tonight--baby, be mine tonight
Be mine tonight--baby, be mine tonight
