The times are tough now, just getting tougher

This old world is rough, it's just getting rougher

Cover me, come on baby, cover me

Well I'm looking for a lover who will come on in and cover me

Promise me baby you won't let them find us

Hold me in your arms, let's let our love blind us

Cover me, shut the door and cover me

Well I'm looking for a lover who will come on in and cover me



Outside's the rain, the driving snow

I can hear the wild wind blowing

Turn out the light, bolt the door

I ain't going out there no more



This whole world is out there just trying to score

I've seen enough I don't want to see any more,

Cover me, come on and cover me

I'm looking for a lover who will come on in and cover me
