If you change your mind
I'm the first in line
Honey I'm still free, take a chance on me.
If you need me let me know gonna be around.
If you got no place to go when you're feeling down.
If you're all alone when the pretty birds have flown
Honey I'm still free, take a chance on me
Gonna do my very best and it ain't no lie.
If you put me to the test if you let me try,
Take a chance on me,
Take a chance on me.
