I can’t give you anything but love, baby
That’s the only thing I’ve plenty of, baby
Scheme a while dream a while
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
Until that lucky day
You know darned well, baby
I can’t give you anything but love
