If I Ain't Got You lyrics by Marty Stuart
Well I've got a steady jobthat pays enough
a second hand car that
don't break down much
I've got a two~tone hounddog
wagging his tail
Ed McMahon promising
a million in the mail
Ought to be enough
to see a poor boy through
but it don't mean nothing
if I ain't got you
I've got every eight track
that Elvis ever made
Crank it up loud and
dance the night away
I've got Chardonnay chillin'
in the Frigidaire,
a dozen ways of telling
you how I care
Just out the window
there's a lover's moon
but it don't mean nothing
if I ain't got you
If I ain't got you,
baby it's all in vain,
If I ain't got you,
it's like a honeymoon
without Champagne,
a shiny set of rails
without a train
Well, I've got a little dream
about the rest of my life
Find the perfect girl and finally
make her my wife
Start a little family and watch it grow
Visit on Sundays after we get old,
Make enough love
to last a whole life through
but it don't mean nothing
if I ain't got you
If I ain't got you,
baby it's all in vain,
If I ain't got you,
it's like a honeymoon
without Champagne,
a shiny set of rails
without a train
I've got a double wide heart
with room for two
but it don't mean nothing
if I ain't got you
No it don't mean nothing
if I ain't got you
Aah it don't, mean nothing
if I ain't got you
