| For as long as I can remember
|
| It’s been struggle and worry every day
|
| It’s been a long time coming
|
| I said it’s been such a long time coming
|
| But good things are going to come my way
|
| I work so hard and I put in all my hours
|
| Just to make myself a few dollars every day
|
| It’s been such a long time coming
|
| Baby, it’s been such a long time coming
|
| But good things are going to come my way
|
| Never met a girl who’ll love me
|
| I’ve spent so many lonely nights
|
| But then one day girl, you came along
|
| And every little thing is going to be alright
|
| I try so hard to make you feel so happy
|
| I’m going to do every little thing to make you stay, to make you stay
|
| Oh, baby, it’s been such a long time coming
|
| I never thought it would come, but it’s been such a long time coming
|
| And good things, oh let me tell you that these good little things
|
| Good things are going to come my way
|
| Oh, baby, yes good little things are going to come my way |
