Nothing’s too good for my baby
Nothing’s too good for my girl
Nothing’s too good for my baby
Oh, no
(Nothing's too good for my girl)
Verse 1:
I’m the luckiest guy in the world
'Cause I’ve got one pearl of a girl
For my baby I work part-time
Down at the neighborhood five-and-dime
Half of my money goes to buy her
Some of the things her little heart desires
The other half goes dime by dime
To show my cookie a real good time, because
Bridge 1:
She’s sweet and she’s kind
And she tells me that she’s mine all mine, now
Ain’t that lovin', ain’t that livin'
Ain’t that half the fun of givin'
Verse 2:
I walk around with my chest stuck out
'Cause my baby’s worth bragging about
Every Johnnie, Jack, and Jim
Wished that she belonged to him
I gave up the old gang of mine
'Cause with my girl goes all my time
One of these days I’m gonna buy her a ring
And marry her — and everything, because
Bridge 2:
She’s sweet and she’s mellow
And she tells me that I’m one heck of a fellow, now
Ain’t that lovin', ain’t that livin'
Ain’t that half the fun of givin'
Coda:
Nothing’s too good for my baby
Nothing’s too good for my girl
She’s all right and out of sight
And I love her ah-ha-ha, yeah ah-ah-ha-ha-ha ha Ah-ha-ha yeah, I’m gonna get her a diamond ring, everything
This album was a hit with us in school back in 1966. I was a young kid but when this album was brought into school for our fun day it was played on the record player. I wished "Purple Raindrops" was on this album because it was the flip side of "Uptight".
