Various Artists - A Picture of Me (Without You) lyrics

From being merely a necessary luxury And someone sympathetic to have about Why, now you're nearly a luxurious necessity I couldn't imagine ever living without I suppose I'd somehow struggle through But I'd hate to picture myself without you Picture Henry Ford without a car Picture heaven's firmament without a star Picture Fritzy Kreisler without a fiddle Picture poor Philadelphia without a Biddle Picture good cigars without Havana Picture Huey Long without Louisiana Mix 'em all together, and what have you got? Just a picture of me without you Picture H. G. Wells without a brain Picture Av'rell Harriman without a train Picture Tintern Abbey without a cloister Picture Billy the Oysterman without an oyster Picture Central Park without a sailor Picture Mister Lord minus Mister Taylor Mix 'em all together, and what have you got? Just a picture of me without you Picture Ogden Nash without a rhyme Picture Mister Bulova without the time Picture Staten Island without a ferry Picture little George Washington without a cherry Picture brother Cain without his Abel Picture Clifton Webb minus Mother Mabel Mix 'em all together, and what have you got? Just a picture of me without you Picture Paul Revere without a horse Picture love in Hollywood without divorce Picture Barbara Hutton without a nickel Picture poor Mister Heinz, my dear, without a pickle Picture City Hall without boondogglin' Picture Sunday tea minus Father Coughlin Mix 'em all together and what have you got? Just a picture of me without you Picture Lily Pons without a throat Picture Harold Vanderbilt without a boat Picture Billy Sunday without a sinner Picture dear Missus Corrigan without a dinner Picture Hamlet's ghost without a darkness Picture Mother Yale minus Father Harkness Mix 'em all together and what have you got? Just a picture of me without you!
