I'm not good at saving But i'm good at holding on Like the way the sparkle Never leaves your eyes I'm not good at leaving But i'm good at getting gone And i'm giving all I have To get me by Lady Take me by the hand You know i'm doing what I gotta do To make you understand Lady I'll give it all i can Yes i'd swim the river up and back If it'll make me your man Oh I'd swim the river up and back If it'll make me your man I'm not good at talking But I'm good at speaking up Telling Mom and Pa just how it is I'm no good at joking But I'm good at cracking up So kick your shoes up on the bank And jump right in Lady Take me by the hand You know i'm doing what I gotta do To make you understand Lady I'll give it all i can I swear i'd swim the river up and back If it'll make me your man Oh I'd swim the river up and back If it'll make me your man I'm not good at aiming But I'm taking every shot Pointing my red arrow At your heart I'm no good at swimming But i'll give it all i got Till i finally float away Inside your arms Lady take me by the hand You know I'm doing What i gotta do To make you understand Lady I'll give it all i can I swear id swim the river up and back If it would make me your man Oh I'd swim the river up and back If it would make me your man Oh I'd swim the river up and back If it would make me your man
