Ethel Waters - I Can't Give You Anything But Love lyrics

Gee, but it's tough to be broke, kid It's not a joke, kid, it's a curse My luck is changing, it's gotten from Simply rotten to something worse Who knows, some day I will win too I'll begin to reach my prime Now though I see what our end is All I can spend is just my time I can't give you anything but love, baby That's the only thing I've plenty of,baby Dream awhile, scheme awhile We're sure to find Happiness and I guess All those things you've always pined for Gee I'd like to see you looking swell, baby Diamond bracelets Woolworth doesn't sell, baby Till that lucky day you know darned well, baby I can't give you anything but love Rome wasn't built in a day, kid You have to pay, kid, for what you get But I am willing to wait, dear Your little mate, dear, will not forget You have a lifetime before you I'll adore you, come what may Please don't be blue for the present When it's so pleasant to hear you say I can't give you anything but love, baby That's the only thing I've plenty of,baby Dream awhile, scheme awhile We're sure to find Happiness and I guess All those things you've always pined for Gee I'd like to see you looking swell, baby Diamond bracelets Woolworth doesn't sell, baby Till that lucky day you know darned well, baby I can't give you anything but love
