I was laughin'
Playin' in the streets, I was unknowin'
I didn't know my fate
Playin'
The game of love, but never really showin'
I thought that love could wait
I was a young man and sure to go astray
You walked right into my life
And told me love would find a way
To keep on growin'
Keep on growin'
Keep on growin'
I was standin'
Looking in the face of one who loved me
Feeling so ashamed
Hopin'
And prayin', Lord, that she could understand me
But I didn't know her name
She took my hand in hers and told me I was wrong
She said, "You're gonna be all right, boy
Oh, just as long"
"As you keep on growin'
Keep on growin'
Keep on growin'"
Yeah, yeah, yeah
(instrumental)
Baby
(short instrumental)
Maybe
Someday baby, who knows where or when, Lord
Just you wait and see
We'll be walkin'
Together hand in hand, along forever
Woman just you and me
'Cause time is gonna change us
Lord, and I know it's true
Our love is gonna keep on glowin'
And growin' and it's all we gotta do (yeah, yeah)
Keep on growin'
Keep on growin'
Keep on growin'
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Keep on growin'
Keep on growin'
Keep on growin'
(instrumental)
