Hey!

I wanna make her love me till the rock ain't stone

And I wanna make her love me till the cows come home

And I wanna make her love me till the fire don't burn

And I wanna make her love me till the world cease to turn

Oh papa, I'm like a little lost lamb

Reaching for a girl that's out of reach

Ah, sit right down and talk to me man to man

Tell me how to practice what you used to preach

Oh, papa used to tell me that a man could do

Anything he ever put his heart into

But I wanna make her love me till them seas run dry

And I wanna make her love me till money can't buy

I wanna make her love me till the fifth week in May

And I wanna make her love me till Ol' Man River runs away

Oh, she's a ditty and as pretty as Mona Lisa

Papa's rich and her mama's proud

I worked three jobs tryin' to get what might please her

But still she lives in a world where I ain't allowed

Ah papa, you used to tell me it might take a little sweat

But when a man wakes up he sure enough will get

I wanna make her love me till the kingdom come

I wanna make her love me till the cows come home

I gonna make her love me till right is wrong

Ah Hey, yeah Hey

Ah, I can't compete with Baby Face Pete

And I ain't no match for Lou

He gave her a diamond, a diamond ring the other week

And all I can give her is a heart so true

Oh, papa used to say a true heart will reign

What a true heart desires it sure enough will gain

But I wanna make her love me till the rock ain't stone

I wanna make her love me till the cows come home

I gonna make her love me till it snows in June

Hey, hey, save on my baby, yeah, yeah, yeah
