I Got Plenty O’ Nuttin’

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Ray Charles] Oh, I got plenty of nothin' Yes, and nothin's plenty for me I got no car, I got no mule I got no misery [Verse 2: Ray Charles] Well, the folks with plenty of plenty They keep a lock on the door 'Cause they're afraid somebody gonna rip 'em off While they're out makin' more Now you tell me, what for? [Bridge: Ray Charles] No, I got no lock on the door That's no way to be They could steal the rug from the floor That's okay with me 'Cause the things that I prize Like the stars in the sky All free [Verse 3: Ray Charles] Oh no, I got plenty of nothin' Yeah, and nothin's plenty for me I got my gal, I got my song I got heaven thе whole day long I got my gal, I've got my Lord, and I've got my song [Verse 4: Cleo Laine] Woo, I got plеnty of nothin' And nothin's plenty for me I got the sun, I got the moon Got the deep blue sea [Verse 5: Cleo Laine] Now 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: Cleo Laine] I ain't a-frettin' 'bout hell 'Til the time arrives 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 6: Cleo Laine] Oh, I've got plenty of nothin' And nothin's plenty for me I've got my guy, I got my song Got heaven the whole day long Got my guy, got my Lord, I've got my song [Instrumental Break] [Bridge: Ray Charles & Cleo Laine] No, I ain't frettin' about 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 6: Ray Charles, Cleo Laine, Both] Oh, I got plenty of nothin' And nothin's plenty for me Yeah, I've got my gal, got my song Got heaven the whole day long No use complainin' I got my gal, I got my man I got my Lord Got my song
