I Struck It Rich

I struck it rich when I found you, baby
And I found you in the nick of time
I struck it rich when I found you, darling
And I’ll be rich as long your mine
Because I love you, baby
I need you, darling
Now that I found gold
You know I’m gonna stake my claim
It’s not the kind of gold
That brings a man fortune and fame
Before I met you, girl
My life was so empty
To others, I’m still poor
But with you, I’ve got plenty
And, baby, let me tell you, darling
I struck it rich when I found you, baby
And I found you in the nick of time
I struck it rich when I found you, darling
And I’ll be rich just as long as you’re mine
Because I love you, baby
I need you, darling
Girls like you are rare
It’s true you can’t find them no more
But I was like a miner searching
Hard to find it and I got my reward
Listen, many years ago, a wise man said
Good things come to you
If you just go out and get it
Many years ago, a wise man said
Good things come to those
That go out and get it
And, baby, I went out and got you
I struck it rich when I found you baby
I found you in the nick of time
I struck it rich when I found you darling
And I’ll be rich just as long as you’re mine
I struck it rich when I found you baby
I found you in the nick of time
