Got a one room apartment to a little tiny space
Isn't much, but keeps the rain drops off my pretty baby's face
I'm just gettin' by and the moneys spent
Don't even know how I'm gonna pay the monthly rent

But I know exactly what I wanna do
I wanna make this work with you

I know your wandering what I mean
Nothing in life is guaranteed
I never know just were I'm going lady
I need direction in my life

Nah, nah, nah
No guarantee
Nah, nah, nah
No guarantee

While I was out window gazin'
I put your coat on layaway
You know I wanna buy you diamonds
Soon as they increase my pay

Startin' from down, it's hard to kept your head
Makin' love every night on a squeaky bed
That's right that the way it is, there's no guarantee

I know your wandering what I mean
Nothing in life is guaranteed
I never know just were I'm going lady
I need direction in my life

Then anything you wanna do baby
You know I'll be down for you lady
So let's just keep it strong

I know your wandering what I mean
Nothing in life is guaranteed
I never know just were I'm going lady
I need direction in my life

Keep it strong
We gotta keep pushin' on
Keep it strong
We gotta keep pushin' on and on
