Buck Owens – Above And Beyond Lyrics
A well I’ll give you love
That’s above and beyond the call of love
And I’ll never ever make you cry
A yes I’ll give you love
That’s above and beyond the call of love
And love’s something that money can’t buy
Well a poor boy’s chances for a pretty girl’s glances
Are sometimes very few
Though I’ve got no money, if you’ll be my honey
Here’s what I’ll offer you
A well I’ll give you love
That’s above and beyond the call of love
And I’ll never ever make you cry
A yes I’ll give you love
That’s above and beyond the call of love
And love’s something that money can’t buy
We met by chance and I knew at a glance
That I’d found my destiny
Now I want to carry you off and marry you
If you will agree
And I’ll give you love
That’s above and beyond the call of love
And I’ll never ever make you cry
Yes I’ll give you love
That’s above and beyond the call of love
And love’s something that money can’t buy
