lyrics

Call me lover boy
Won't you call me sweet
Call me anything
Just call on me

I ain't asking be the only one, just the one you keep

I built you a castle, baby
I built it on a lake
Built with these loving arms you can't break
Now I ain't asking be the only one, just the one you keep

I've been gone a long time now
I been out on the road
Slept on the streets of NYC
And with half of Hollywood

I ain't asking be the only one, just the one you keep

I'm stuck in New Orleans and I ain't got nothing to eat
There's catfish on the floor
Who smashed my guitar?
There's a 7 year old screaming, she's stamping here feet
and i'm crying on the line, baby be the one you keep

I ain't asking be the only one, just the one you keep
Hear me, baby
I'm crying, calling, pleading
To be the one you keep
