Verse:

Gee, but it's tough to be broke, kid, it's not a joke, kid, it's a curse;

My luck is chang -ing, it's got -ten from sim -ply rot -ten to some -thing worse.

Who knows some -day I will win too, I'll be -gin to reach my prime;

Now though I see what our end is all I can spend is just my time:

 

Chorus:

I Can't Give You An -y Thing But Love, Ba -by

That's the on -ly thing I've plen -ty of, Ba -by,

Dream a -while, scheme a -while We're sure to find,

Hap -pi -ness and I guess, all those things you've al -ways pined for,

Gee I'd like to see you look -ing swell, Ba -by,

Dia -mond brace -lets Wool -worth does -n't sell, Ba -by.

Till that luck -y day, you know darn well, Ba -by.

I Can't Give You An -y Thing But Love.
