Lyrics

Hey baby
Do you expect the world from me?
Oh baby
Just because you know I care so much about you
You think it gives the right to do just about whatever you want to
You thought I'd sit around wishing, praying, hoping, dreaming
Or hurt myself by just being lazy
But I won't sit around crying over you, no
There's a lot of life I've got to live
And that's what I'm gonna do, yes
I'm gonna be myself for once, I'ma gonna be brand new
And as long as you live, girl
You won't see me surrender
No, I won't surrender, no, no, no
Maybe I'm not the type of man your mama visualized for you
Still I'm trying to do the best I can every time I can for you
But I won't be sitting around crying over you, no, no
Got a lot of life to live and that's what I'm gonna do, yeah
I'm gonna be myself, I'ma gonna be brand new
And as long as you live, girl
You won't see me surrender, no, no
I won't surrender, no, no, no, no, no
Hey baby
Now, do you expect the world from me?
I'm just a simple man, yeah
I cannot tell myself that I'm not hurting deep down inside of me
But I can't afford to let it lead me to insanity, yeah
For every single man there's a woman in store
A lot would crave for what you got, but still you're asking for more
But I won't sit around crying over you, no, no
I got a lot of life to live, that's what I'm gonna do, oh
I'll be myself, I'ma gonna be brand new
And as long as you live, girl
You won't see me surrender
I won't surrender, no, no, no, no
Just because you know I care so much about you
You think it gives the right to do just about whatever you want to
But I won't sit around crying over you, no
There's a lot of life I've got to live
And that's what I'm gonna do, yes
I'm gonna be myself for once, I'ma gonna be brand new
And as long as you live, girl
You'll never-never see me surrender
It's not on my agenda
I won't surrender, no, no, no
I won't surrender, no, no
I won't surrender, no
I won't surrender, baby
Won't surrender, baby
I'll never surrender, no, no, no
