VERSEWish I was more than oneOne for work and one for funOne to go and one to stayLittle darlin', I'm goin' awayWell, I wish I was two somehowThat could make it all so easy nowOne to stay and one to goLittle darlin', I love you soCHORUS(But/and) it's bye, byeTime won't let me beBye, goodbye, babeOh, child, I swearThere ain't no one that's freeVERSEWell, I wish I was in controlFree to stay and let the good times rollStay with you, babe, I wish I couldLittle darlin', you know I would(REPEAT CHORUS)VERSEWell, I wish I was dreamin' thisAnd wakin' up to your sweet kiss nowFree to stay with this love we've foundLittle darlin', I'm highway bound(REPEAT CHORUS)
