G
I got the fortunes of heaven in diamonds and gold
I got all the bonds baby that the bank could hold
I got houses 'cross the country honey end to end
And everybody buddy wants to be my friend
Well I got all the riches honey any man every knew
                                     C           G
But the only thing I ain't got honey I ain't got you

I got a house full of Rembrandt and priceless art
And all the little girls, they wanna tear me apart
When I walk down the street, people stop and stare
Well, you'd think I might be thrilled,
but baby, I don't care
'Cause I got more good luck, honey,
than old King Farouk
But the only thing I ain't got, baby,
I ain't got you

         C                         G
I got a big diamond watch sittin' on my wrist
        C                      G
I try to tempt you baby but you just resist
        C                          G
I made a deal with the devil babe I won't deny
         C                             D
Until I got you in my arms I can't be satisfied

I got a pound of caviar sitting home on ice
I got a fancy foreign car that rides like paradise
I got a hundred pretty women knockin' down my door
And folks wanna kiss me I ain't even seen before
I been around the world and all across
the seven seas
Been paid a king's ransom for doin'
what comes naturally
But I'm still the biggest fool, honey,
this world ever knew
'Cause the only thing I ain't got, baby,
I ain't got you
