You Deserve

(Album: All Aglow Again! - 1960)

You deserve sixteen lackeys
Waiting on you night and day
And thirty-two hands waving fans
Just to brush the flies away

You deserve Persian maidens
Just to stand and peel your grapes
And dressed in pearls harem girls
In half a dozen sizes and shapes

If I had the riches of Sumatra
I will give you all I own
You deserve a queen like Cleopatra
To come along and share your throne
But you can bet
I will love you
Love you to the end degree
And what you deserve just can't compare
With the love gonna get from me

You deserve painted barges
Just to float you down the Nile
And when you're blue you will have a few
Jesters just to make you smile

If I had the riches of Sumatra
I will give you all I own
You deserve a queen like Cleopatra
To come along and share your throne
But you can bet
I will love you
Love you to the end degree
And what you deserve just can't compare
To the love gonna get from me

Baby, gonna get from me
Baby, gonna get from me
