Moanin’ Low |
| 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 |
