Your rating:
I never envied the rich millionaires I never wanted to have what was theirs I never bother about their affairs As the others do All that I want is a chance to be glad I've grown so tired of being so sad There's only one thing I wish that I had That's you, just you [chorus:] If I had you To just be around when I'm blue A "Four by Two" would be like a mansion on Fifth Avenue I wouldn't change places with Carnegie! And that goes for Rock'feller too! They could keep all their troubles and "Automobubbles" If I had you [2nd verse:] I never envied those rich millionaires Who sit around in their silk-covered chairs Any old sofa with someone who cares It would more than do Just you and me and I'd want nothing more Maybe a baby to play on the floor I'd have a whole lot to be thankful for If I had you
