You ask me to give up the hand of the girl I love
You tell me Im not the man shes worthy of
But who are you to tell her who to love?
Thats up to her, yes, and the Lord above
You better move on
Well, I know you can buy her fancy clothes and diamond rings
But I believe shes happy with me without those things
Still you beg me to set her free
But, my friend, that will never be
You better move on
I cant blame you for lovin her
But cant you understand, man, shes my girl?
And Im never gonna let her go
cause I love her so
I think you better go, now, Im gettin mighty mad
You ask me to give up the only love Ive ever had
Maybe I would, oh, but I love her so
Never gonna let her go
You better move on (you better move on)
You better move on (you better move on)
You better move on (you better move on)
You better move on (you better move on)
You better move on (you better move on)
You better move on (you better move on)
FADE
You better move on
