[Verse 1]
When life's storms seem to shake you
And all your friends forsake you
I'll still take a back seat for you

[Verse 2]
Though your troubles may be plenty
And in your pocket not one penny
I'll still take a back seat for you

[Chorus]
The kind of love I have for you dear
Is a love that comes right from my soul
It's the kind that keeps on giving
And as long as I keep living
I'll still take a back seat for you

[Instrumental Break]
Aww Billy Bird now

[Verse 3]
You may wind up in the gutter
Be turned down by your own mother
I'll still take a back seat for you

[Verse 4]
Your whole family may disown you
Even claim they've never known you
I'll still take a back seat for you
[Chorus]
The kind of love I have for you dear
Is a love that comes right from my soul
It's the kind that keeps on giving
And as long as I keep living
I'll still take a back seat for you
