Lyric I ll Be Alright

Hold back your diamonds and pearls
Cause the attraction s no good to me
Hold back your California Girls
Your prescriptions and your limousines
Hold back your influential friends
For they are really not my type
Cause just as long as I ve got my baby
I ll be alright

I ll be alright
Despite all the finer things
She d have if she were monied
Like a rich girl
I ll be alright
Despite all the candy coloured things
The things that are so untrue

Hold back your perfumes so rare
Cause she smells like a rose untorn
Hold back your designer underwear
She s a beauty just the way she was born
She may not move like Fred Astaire
But her gingerly walk is out of sight
Cause just as long as I ve got my baby
I ll be alright

I ll be alright
Despite all the finer things
She d have if she were monied
Like a rich girl

I ll be alright
Despite all the candy coloured things
The things that are so untrue
I ll sing it for the last time y all

Hold back your critical reviews
Cause my baby don t need the hype
We re happy just to pay our little dues
So get movin , get on your bike
Cause just as long as I ve got my baby
If I can hold on and keep my baby
If I can just hold on and keep my baby
I ll be alright
