I Got Plenty O' Nuttin' - Sammy Davis, Jr., Carmen McRae

Oh, I got plenty o' nuttin'

And nuttin’s plenty for me I got no car, got no mule

I got no misery

De folks wid plenty o' plenty

Got a lock on de door

'Fraid somebody’s a-goin' to rob 'em

While dey’s out a-makin' more

What for?

I got no lock on de door

Dat’s no way to be Dey kin steal de rug from de floor

Dat’s okeh wid me

'Cause de things dat I prize

Like de stars in de skies

All are free

Oh, I got plenty o' nuttin'

And nuttin’s plenty for me I got a gal, got my song

Got Hebben the whole day long

No use complaining

Got my gal, got my Lawd

Got my song

Oh, I got plenty o' nuttin'

And nuttin’s plenty for me I got the sun, got the moon

Got the deep blue sea

De foks wid plenty o' plenty

Got to pray all de day

Seems wid plenty you sure got to worry

How to keep the debbel away

Away

I ain’t frettin 'bout hell

'Till de time arrive

Never worry long as I’m well

Never one to strive

To be good, to be bad

What the hell

I is glad I’s alive

Oh, I got plenty o' nuttin'

And nuttin’s plenty for me I got a gal, got my song

Got Hebben the whole day long

No use complaining

Got my gal, got my Lawd

Got my song
