Hangin' On To What I Got
(专辑: Roll Out The Red Carpet - 1966)
Well, everybody got something on their mind That they like to talk about Well, I
got something that I'm proud of And it's a
worth shouting about. Oh well, I
don't want a
string of big fine cars And I
don't want no fancy yacht Well, I'm a
telling you that I'm a
happy man And I'm a
hanging on to what I
got. I
got a
girl with two brown eyes And arms to hold me tight And I
don't care if the
sun don't shine And daylight turns to night. Well, if a
dollar bill is not worth a
dime And if the
whole world goes to pot Well, I'm a
telling you that I'm a
happy man And I'm a
hanging on to what I
got. [Instrumental] Well, I'll not worry about the
world And what it's a
coming to Or if old Lady Jones has got a
new hat Or if the
brown had turned to blue. Well, if the
London Bridge is a
fallen down Or if old Big Ben has stopped Well, I'm a
telling you that I'm a
happy man And I'm a
hanging on to what I
got. I
got a
girl with two brown eyes And arms to hold me tight And I
don't care if the
sun don't shine And daylight turns to night. Well, if a
dollar bill is not worth a
dime And if the
whole world goes to pot Well, I'm a
telling you that I'm a
happy man And I'm a
hanging on to what I
got. Well, I'm a
telling you that I'm a
happy man And I'm a
hanging on to what I
got...
