Ain't Got You Songtext

von Bruce Springsteen

I got the fortunes of heaven in diamonds and gold
I got all the bonds, baby, that the bank can hold
I got houses 'cross the country, honey, end to end
And everybody, buddy, wants to be my friend
Well I got all the riches, baby, any man ever knew
But the only thing I ain't got, honey, I ain't got you

I got a house full of Rembrandt and priceless art
And all the little girls they wanna tear me apart
When I walk down the street people stop and stare
Well you'd think I might be thrilled but baby I don't care
'Cause I got more good luck, honey, than old King Farouk
But the only thing I ain't got, baby, I ain't got you

I got a big diamond watch sittin' on my wrist
I try to tempt you, baby, but you just resist
I made a deal with the devil, babe, I won't deny
Until I got you in my arms I can't be satisfied

I got a pound of caviar sitting home on ice
I got a fancy foreign car that rides like paradise
I got a hundred pretty women knockin' down my door
And folks wanna kiss me I ain't even seen before
I been all around the world and all across the seven seas
Been paid a king's ransom for doin' what comes naturally
But I'm still the biggest fool, honey, this world ever knew
'Cause the only thing I ain't got, baby, I ain't got you
