Lyrics
BACK-UP PLAN by Jennifer Evans & Jim Beggs
I'm on the path to heaven if you climb in my car
The streets are wet and the road is far
But Baby -- you've got to take a stand!
If you're not ready to be my man
Then I don't want to be your back-up plan!
I say, if you're not ready to be my man
Then I don't want to be your back-up plan!
You promised me all the finer things
Like a 24-karat diamond ring
You've always said that you're my #1 fan!
But if you're not ready to be my man
Then I don't want to be your back-up plan!
I say, if you're not ready to be my man
Then I don't want to be your back-up plan!
Is there a pot of gold
At the end of my rainbow of love?
Are you the pot of gold
Or just another tease that I've had enough of?
I'm ready to give you all that I've got
This heart, this body -- and that's a lot!
But Baby -- you've got to take a stand!
If you're not ready to be my man
Then I don't want to be your back-up plan!
I say, if you're not ready to be my man
Then I don't want to be your back-up plan!
Is there a pot of gold
At the end of my rainbow of love?
Are you the pot of gold
Or just another tease that I've had enough of?
I'm ready to give you all that I've got
This heart, this body -- and that's a lot!
But Baby -- you've got to take a stand!
If you're not ready to be my man
Then I don't want to be your back-up plan!
I say, if you're not ready to be my man
Then I don't want to be your back-up plan!
I say, if you're not ready to be my man
Then I don't want to be your back-up plan!
