[Piano Riff]

[Verse 1: Roland Gift]
There's no one like you for me (Oo, oo, oo, oo, good thing)
Now, you're here (Oo, oo, oo, oo)
Don't ever leave (Good thing)
Maybe my messenger (Ahh, haa)
But they be' handover' a job (Ahh, haa)
But there's no one like you for me (Oo, oo, oo, oo, good thing)

[Chorus]
Social Security let me pair me together (Sha-la-la, sha-ba-da, sha-la-la, sha-ba-da, sha-la-la, sha-ba-da, sha-la-la, sha-ba-da)
I begin to have (Sha-la-la, sha-ba-da)
You begin to me forever (Sha-la-la, sha-ba-da, sha-la-la, sha-ba-da)
Yeah, yeah (Sha-la-la, sha-ba-da)

[Verse 2: Roland Gift]
Some people I don't want approve (Oo, oo, oo, oo, good thing)
They'll tell stories (Oo, oo, oo, oo)
That's just aren't true (Good thing)
They'll never understand that God see what I can (Aah, haa, aah, haa)
Some people I don't want approve (Oo, oo, oo, oo, good thing)
[Chorus]
Social Security let me turn me together (Sha-la-la, sha-ba-da, sha-la-la, sha-ba-da, sha-la-la, sha-ba-da, sha-la-la, sha-ba-da)
I begin to have (Sha-la-la, sha-ba-da)
You begin to me forever (Sha-la-la, sha-ba-da, sha-la-la, sha-ba-da)
Yeah, yeah (Sha-la-la, sha-ba-da)

[Bridge]
You show me
Only ever good times
Never any bad time
You show me
Only ever glad times
Never any sad time

[Verse 3: Roland Gift]
Don't take me for a fool (Oo, oo, oo, oo, good thing)
If you ever think we're through (Oo, oo, oo, oo, good thing)
Let me feel your presence (Aah, haa)
I'll pack my bags and clear (Aah, haa)
Don't take me afar—a fool (Oo, oo, oo, oo, good thing)

[Chorus]
Social Security let me turn me together (Sha-la-la, sha-ba-da, sha-la-la, sha-ba-da, sha-la-la, sha-ba-da, sha-la-la, sha-ba-da)
