Lyrics
Don’t take much to make me happy
Smiling sappy dressing snappy
Don’t think I’d ever feel crappy
If I don’t have you
If I don’t have you.
Don’t need no car with a built in bar
No caviar no perrier
Don’t need to be a big shot star
If I don’t have you
If I don’t have you
Talking ’bout you.
Well I could live on bread and water
Do what I ought to watch a slaughter
Hold my dog while someone shot her
if I don’t have you
if I don’t have you.
Lemme tell you now
Eight foot tall and twice as strong
No need for song or cheap thrill pong
The days would just seem half as long
if I don’t have you
if I don’t have you.
Don’t take much to make me happy
Smiling sappy dressing snappy
Don’t think I’d ever feel crappy
If I don’t have you
If I don’t have you.
Yeah
If I don’t have you.
If I don’t have you.
(Chuckie Ellis)
