If you leave me, baby, say you won't be back

That would be the end of me, 'cause I'd have a heart attack

You better get some insurance on me, baby, take out some insurance on me, baby

'Cause if you ever, ever say goodbye, I'm gonna haul right off and die

Darlin', how I love you, long as I got breath

If we part, I know sweetheart, it would worry me to death

You better get some insurance on me, baby, take out some insurance on me, baby

'Cause if you ever, ever say goodbye, I'm gonna haul right off and die

Don't get no sick and accident, 'cause I'm healthy as can be

Now, if ya got any sense, you'd take the hint and get a Penn Life, on me

You don't know me, baby, like I know myself,

I couldn't live if you should give your love to someone else

Better get some insurance on me, baby, take out some insurance on me, baby

'Cause if you ever, ever say goodbye, I'm gonna haul right off and die.

I remember Paris in '49

The Champs Elysee, San Michelle

And old Beaujolais wine

And I recall that you were mine

In those Parisienne days

Looking back at the photographs

Those summer days spent outside corner cafes

Oh, I could write you paragraphs

About my old Parisienne days

It was a miserable feeling, now babe, a feeling I do despise

I have to leave, leave you baby, because you know you done me wrong

I have to leave you baby, because you know you done me wrong

I'm gonna pack up and leave you darling and break up my happy home

I have to leave, leave you baby, I'm gonna leave you all alone

I'm gonna leave you baby, I'm gonna leave you all alone

I'm gonna pack up and leav you darling, because you know you done me wrong

You can go ahead now little darling, 'cause I want you to have your way

'Think about the generations and they say:

- We want to make it a better place

For our children

And our children's children

So that they know

It's a better world for them

And think if they can

Make it a better place?"

There's a place in your heart

And I know that it is love

And this place could be

Much brighter than tomorrow

And if you really try

You'll find there's no need to cry

In this place you'll feel

There's no hurt or sorrow

There are ways to get there

If you care enough for the living

Make a little space

Make a better place

Heal the world

Make it a better place

For you and for me

And the entire human race

There are people dying

If you care enough for the living

Make it a better place

For you and for me

If you want to know why

There's love that cannot lie

Love is strong

It only cares of joyful giving

If we try we shall see

In this bliss

We cannot feel fear or dread

We stop existing and start living

Then it feels that always

Love's enough for us growing

So make a better world

Make a better world

Heal the world

Make it a better place

For you and for me

And the entire human race

There are people dying

If you care enough for the living

Make a better place

For you and for me

And the dream we were conceived in

Will reveal a joyful face

And the world we once believed in

Will shine again in grace

Then why do we keep strangling life

Wound this earth, crucify its soul

Though it's plain to see

This world is heavenly, be God's glow

We could fly so high

Let our spirits never die

In my heart I feel

You are all my brothers

Create a world with no fear

Together we'll cry happy tears

See the nations turn their swords

Into plowshares

We could really get there

If you cared enough for the living

Make a little space

To make a better place

Heal the world

Make it a better place

For you and for me

And the entire human race

There are people dying

If you care enough for the living

Make a better place

For you and for me

There are people dying

If you care enough for the living

Make a better place

For you and for me

You and for me

(Make a better place) [3x]

You and for me

(Heal the world we live in)

You and for me

(Save it for our children) [3x]
