[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Donnie, youâre a fine young man
Youâre hoping to take the hand
Of some sweet thing who understands what this worldâs about
Sheâs careful, with a clever mind, impervious to pick up lines
Just slow down and give her time; I bet sheâll come around
[Chorus]
Donnie, donât give up on her; she wonât give up on you
Sheâs the kind of woman that only speaks the truth
Sheâll give you blue eyed babies, and raise âem real good, too
Donnie, donât give up on her; she wonât give up on you
[Verse 2]
Don, youâve got yourself a wife
You only had to ask her twice
But rest assured, sheâs on your side until you breathe your last
Together you will build a home, a legacy stronger than stone
Youâll work them fingers to the bone, but she will hold you fast
[Chorus]
Donnie, donât give up on her; she wonât give up on you
Sheâs the kind of woman that only speaks the truth
Sheâll give you blue eyed babies, and raise âem real good, too
Donnie, donât give up on her; she wonât give up on you
[Verse 3]
Donnie, youâre a grey, old man,
But that sweet thing still holds your hand
Sheâs there to help you take a stand, now that standingâs hard
The girl stuck with you through it all, faithful in the rise and fall
Soon youâll hear the master call, and away you will depart
Youâll leave her with a full and heavy heart
[Chorus]
Donnie, donât give up on her; she wonât give up on you
Sheâs the kind of woman that only speaks the truth
Sheâll give you blue eyed babies, and raise âem real good, too
Donnie, donât give up on her; she wonât give up on you
She won t give up on you
[Outro]
