I Can’t Give You Anything But Love
Jimmy McHugh, Dorothy Fields
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, someday 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's doesn't sell, baby
'Til that lucky day you know darned well, baby
I can't give you anything but the joys of life
And the song I sing
I can't give you anything but love
