I Got Plenty O’ Nuttin’

Lyrics

[Trumpet Solo: Louis Armstrong] [Verse 1: Louis Armstrong] Yes, I've got plenty of nothin' And nothin's plenty for me Oh, I got no car, got no mule Got no misery [Verse 2: Louis Armstrong] The folks with plenty of plenty Got a lock on their door 'Fraid somebody's going to rob 'em While they's out makin' more What for? [Bridge: Louis Armstrong] I got no lock on the door That's no way to be They can steal the rug from the floor That's okay with me 'Cause the things that I prize Like the stars in the skies All free [Verse 3: Louis Armstrong] Yes, I've got plenty of nothin' And nothin's plenty for me Oh, I got my gal, got my song I got heaven the whole day long Got my gal, got my Lord, yes, got my song [Verse 4: Ella Fitzgerald] Oh, I got plenty of nothin' And nothin's plenty for me I got the sun, got the moon Got the deep blue sea [Verse 5: Ella Fitzgerald] The folks with plenty of plenty Got to pray all the day Seems with plenty you sure got to worry How to keep the devil away, away [Bridge: Ella Fitzgerald] I ain't a-frettin' 'bout hell 'Til the time arrive Never worry long as I'm well Never one to strive To be good, to be bad What the hell, I am glad l'm alive [Verse 3: Ella Fitzgerald] Oh, I got plenty of nothin' And nothin's plenty for me I got my man, got my song Got heaven the whole day long Got my man, got my Lord, got my song [Outro] Got plenty, got plenty Got plenty of nothin' Got plenty of nothin'
