I Ain't Got Nothin' but the Blues Songtext
von Sarah Vaughan

Ain′t got the change of a nickel
Ain't got no bounce, no bounce in my shoes
I ain′t got no fancy to tickle
I ain't got nothing but the blues

Ain't got no coffee that′s perking
Ain′t got no winnings to lose
Ain't got a dream that is working
I ain′t got nothing but the blues

When trumpets flare up
I keep my hair up
I just can't make it get down
Believe me, peppie
I can′t get happy
Since my ever-loving baby left town

Ain't got no rest in my slumbers
Ain′t got no feelings to bruise
Ain't got no telephone numbers
I-I-I ain't got nothing but the blues


Ain′t got the change of a nickel
Ain′t got no bouncer in my shoes
Ain't got no fancy to tickle
Ooh, I ain′t got nothing but the blues

Ain't got no coffee that′s perking
Ain't got no winnings to lose
Ain′t got a dream that is working
I ain't got nothing but the blues

I got no rest in my slumbers
Ain't got no rest in my slumbers
I ain′t got no feelings to bruise
Ain′t got no telephone numbers
I ain't got nothing but the blues

I ain′t got the change of a nickel
Ain't got no bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce in my shoes
Ain′t got no fancy to tickle
I ain't got nothing
I ain′t got nothing
I ain't got nothing
I ain't got nothing
I ain′t got nothing
Ain′t got a damn thing but the blues

I ain't got nothing but the blues
