Take my hand, little girl,
and we'll go through life together,
money in the bank I just ain't got.
But we've got youth on our side
and the love we just can't hide,
so take my hand, little girl, take my hand.
Well, I know that you come
from a high class family,
and your mother doesn't dig the likes of me.
But I don't care what she says,
I'll make good you, we will see,
so take my hand, little girl, take my hand.
I work hard for my pay,
your mother spends more in a day,
with her purse buying clothes and fancy jewellery.
But you can keep all these things,
they don't mean a thing,
so take my hand, little girl, take my hand.
It's up to you to decide,
which life you want to lead,
but if you love me,
your decision shouldn't be too hard.
I hope you got the sense to see
that love means more than money,
so take my hand, little girl, take my hand.
