Oh I got plenty o’ nothin’ and nothin’s plenty for me
I got no car, got no mule, I got no misery
The folks with plenty o’ plenty
Got a lock on their door
Fraid’ somebody’s a-goin’ to rob ‘em
While they’s out a makin’ more. What for?
I got no lock on my door, that’s no way to be.
They can steal the rug from the floor,
That’s okay with me
‘cause the things that I price
like the stars in the skies are all free.
Oh I got plenty o’ nothin, and nothin’s plenty for
me.
I got my guy, got my song, got heaven the whole day long
(No use complainin’!)
Got my man, got my lord, got my song.
I got plenty ‘o nothin’ and nothin’s plenty for me
I got the sun, got the moon, got the deep blue sea.
The folks with plenty o’ plenty
Got to pray all the day
Seems with plenty you sure got to worry
How to keep the devil away.
I ain’t a frettin’ bout hell till the time arrives
Never worry as long as I’m well
Never strive to be good, to be bad, what the hell?
I’m just glad I’m alive.Chorus
