You may think that I don't care
'Cause I've been a rover here and everywhere
In Princeton, you bet about me, they never yet say good
But one thing I like about you
You always do as you should and that's why

If I don't, if I don't have you
Then for me, there'll be nobody else, no
And even if the river should run dry
For me, there'll be nobody else, no

Though I may stay away for a night or two
All form of respect unto you is still due
Though staying away make you feel sad, make you feel blue
It's not that I really mean to embarrass you, 'cause, darling

If I don't, if I don't have you
For me, there'll be nobody else, no
And even if the trees should touch the sky
For me, there'll be nobody else, no

Though I may stay away for a night or two
All form of respect unto you is still due
Though staying away make you feel sad, make you feel blue
It's not that I really mean to embarrass you, 'cause, darling
If I don't, if I don't have you
For me, there'll be nobody else, no
And even if the river should run dry
For me, there'll be nobody else, no

If I don't, if I don't, if I don't have you
Nobody else will do, no
If I don't, if I don't, if I don't have you
Nobody else will do, believe me
If I don't, if I don't, if I don't have you
Nobody else will do, no
Nobody else will do, no
Nobody else will do, believe me
Nobody else will do
Nobody else will do, no
Nobody else will do, no
