Goin’ To Chicago Blues |
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 |
