Lyrics
You and me, girl (uh huh)
Go a long way back
And I'm so proud
I'm so proud
You and me, girl
Go a long way back
Yeah, we go a long way back
I remember when
Loving you wasn't easy
It wasn't easy, baby
But I stuck on in there with you
And we made it
Sugar, we made it
Through it all
Now let's keep it up
'Cause I ain't had enough
No, no
You and me, girl
Go a long way back
Such a long, long, long, long way
You and me, girl (yeah, girl)
Go a long way back
Yeah, yeah
We go a long way back
And I know you remember
When trying to love me wasn't easy
It wasn't easy, baby
But you stuck on in there with me
And you see, huh, we made it
Just you and me and we love each other so
Girl, we can't let each other go, no, girl
You and me, girl
Go a long way back
Such a long, long, long, long way
Yeah, girl
You and me, girl
Go a long way back
Yeah, we go a long way back
Ah, ah, ah
You and me, baby
Ooh, ooh, ooh...
Oh, just you and me
And we love each other so
Girl, we can't let each other go
You and me, girl
Go a long way back
I wanna thank you, girl
A long way back
We go a long, long, long
Long, long, long, long
Long way
We go a long, long
Long, long, long way
A long way back
