Lyrics Just Once In My Life - Carole King

There's a lot of things I want, a lot of things that I'd like to be
But girl, I don't foresee a rags to riches story for me
There's just one little dream I've got to make come true
There's just one round I've got to win, I can't be a loser with you
Baby, baby, just once in my life, let me get what I want
Girl, don't let me down
Just once in my life, let me hold on to one good thing I've found
Don't let me down, baby, say that you'll be staying
'Cause I couldn't face the day, if you weren't here by my side
And if you went away, I'd be left without any pride
I've given up on schemes 'cause every one fell through
I've given up so many things, don't ask me to give up on you
Baby, baby, just once in my life, let me get what I want
Girl, don't let me down
I said, just once in my life, let me hold on to one good thing I've found
Don't let me down, baby, say that you'll be staying
That old pot of gold ain't so easy to find
But if you stand by me, yeah, girl, I'll have peace of mind
I can't give you the world, but I'll work hard for you, girl
I'll work hard, everyday, all my life, you will see
If you won't leave me
Please don't leave me
Just do this for me, baby
Once in my life, let me get what I want
Girl, don't let me down
Just once in my life, let me hold on to one good thing I've found
Don't let me down, baby, say that you'll be staying
Just once in my life, let me get what I want
Girl, don't let me down
I said, just once in my life, let me get what I want
Girl, don't let me down
