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.
