    For all things UB40: linktr.ee/ub40...
    They say we're young and we don't know
    Won't find out until we grow
    Well I don't know babe if that's true
    'Cause you got me and baby I got you
    Babe, I got you babe, I got you, babe
    They say our love won't pay the rent
    Before it's earned our money's always spent
    I guess that's so, we don't have a lot
    But at least I'm sure of all the things we got
    Babe, I got you babe, I got you, babe
    I got flowers in the spring
    I got you, to wear my ring
    And when I'm sad, you're a clown
    And when I get scared you're always around
    So let them say your hair's too long
    I don't care, with you I can't go wrong
    Then put your little hand in mine
    There ain't no hill or mountain we can't climb
    Babe, I got you babe, I got you, babe
    I got you to hold my hand
    I got you to understand
    I got you to walk with me
    I got you to talk with me
    I got you to kiss goodnight
    I got you to hold me tight
    I got you and I won't let go
    I got you to love me so
    20 years after the original Sonny & Cher release, in July 1985, UB40 with American singer Chrissie Hynde released a cover version of "I Got You Babe" for the group's sixth studio album, Baggariddim (1985). This version charted at number one on the UK Singles Chart and reached number 28 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart. The song also appeared on the Pretenders' 1987 compilation album The Singles.
    The official video was directed by Jonthan Demme, whose other credits include iconic works such as Talking Heads’ concert film Stop Making Sense and films Philadelphia and Silence of the Lambs.
    Track personnel:
    Jimmy Brown - drums
    Chrissie Hynde - vocals

    1982....concert in Harare.
    My buddies and I, with a little "help"
    from a friend....:) had a blast with UB40 at their concert!!...
    We then went to a afterhours party at a private plot out of town.
    To our surprise and disbelief,
    the band was there!! They were enjoying a good mingle with the people lol....was AWESOME.
    I remember we left around 10am that next morning. 4 of us walked and hitched a ride back to town ( Harare)...we'd eaten some tasty boom cookies with coffee (weed)...lol
    We couldn't stop laughing all the way back to Harare !!
    Even the couple who picked us up
    in the end had ro ask if we were cooked...😂😂😂
