On my shoulder you can lean
You are my queen
Nothing so beautiful, girl in this world I've ever seen.

No Nothing else, No nothing else
Now all I wanna do girl is be myself

And a roll like a dice
Hey champion girl you're strong
A woman like you deserve a good man




You know me a wait, me a wait real long
If I am not for you, tell me where do I belong.
