(Billy Dean/J K Jones)



I know you can make it in this world on your own

But I wanna take care of you

The woman within may think that it's wrong

But I wanna take care of you



I'll show you the love of a man that knows how

To hold you without holding you down

It's not a sign of weakness to let me be strong

I wanna take care of you



I'll carry the weight of your world on my shoulder

I wanna take care of you

In the prime of our years till time ticks us older

I wanna take care of you



I'll be your rope when that mountain's too steep

Be your hope when the water's too deep

I'll share my blanket when trouble winds turn colder

I wanna take care of you



I've got nothin' to prove but the way that I feel

It's love but it's so much more

For once in my life I know that I am living for



When the good Lord takes you He better take me too

So I can take care of you

When the good Lord takes you He better take me too

So I can take care of you
