If I Ain't Got You Songtext
von Marty Stuart

Written by Craig Wiseman and Trey Bruce

Well I′ve got a steady job that pays enough
A second hand car that don't break down much
I′ve got a two-toned hound dog wagging it's tail
Ed McMahon promised there's a million in the mail
Oughta be enough to see a poor boy through
But it don′t mean nothin′ if I ain't got you
I′ve got every 8-track that Elvis ever made
Crank it up and dance the night away
I got Chardonnay in the frigidaire
Dozen ways of telling you how I care
Just out the window there's a lovers′ moon
But it don't mean nothin′ 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 with out 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 girlfriend and 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 nothin′ 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 with out champagne
A shiny set of rails without a train

I got a double-wide heart with room for two
But it don′t mean nothin' if I ain′t got you
No it don't mean nothin′ if I ain't got you
Ah it don′t mean nothin' if I ain't got you
