Ain’t Got a Lot (music by Gyzhtcheuk; lyrics by Tamicus)

[verse 1] I ain’t got a lot of money, Still got much more to get; But I got me one fine honey And that’s the most I got yet! I ain’t got a lot of wisdom I’m still workin’ on my head But I got me a mighty good woman And she’s the smartest thing I ever did! [chorus] I may not be a rich man But my baby gives me more Than I ever had before She picks me up when I am low, And when the world’s too fast She makes it slow; She teaches me what I don’t know And all her lessons end with a kiss I never knew learnin’ could be like this! So I ain’t got a lot But baby, I sure do know what I got! [verse 2] I ain’t got a lot of stomp In my steppin’ yet But my baby keeps me jumpin’ And that’s the best step I can get! I ain’t got a lot of trouble I stay quiet, you can bet And my baby keeps me peaceful And that’s the best easy I can get! [chorus] I may not be a rich man But my baby gives me more Than I ever had before She picks me up when I am low, And when the world’s too fast She makes it slow; She teaches me what I don’t know And all her lessons end with a kiss I never knew learnin’ could be like this! So I ain’t got a lot But baby, I sure do know what I got! [Instrumental break with piano and sax solo] [bridge] I ain’t got the boogie In my woogie (No boogie woogie!) I ain’t got the honky In my tonk (Say whhhaaaatttt?!) I ain’t got the Stomp In my Savoy (But you gotta dance!) But I got a good-hearted woman And I know I am one lucky guy! [final chorus] I may not be a rich man But my baby gives me more Than I ever had before She picks me up when I am low When the world’s too fast She makes it slow She teaches me what I don’t know And all her lessons end with a kiss I never knew learnin’ could be like this! So I ain’t got a lot (He don’t got a lot!) No, I ain’t got a lot But baby, I sure do know what I got! [Big band jam to out]
