Marty Stuart – If I Ain't Got You lyrics

Written by Craig Wiseman and Trey Bruce

Well I've got a steady job that pays enough
A second hand car that don't break down much
I've got a two-toned hound dog wagging it's tail
Ed Mcmahon promised there's a million in the mail
Oughta be enough to see a poor boy through
But it don't mean nothin' if I ain't got you
I've got every 8-track that Elvis ever made
Crank it up and dance the night away
I got Chardonnay in the frigidaire
Dozen ways of telling you how I care
Just out the window there's a lovers' moon
But it don't mean nothin' if I ain't got you

If I ain't got you
Baby it's all in vain
If I ain't got you
It's like a honeymoon with out champagne
A shiny set of rails without a train

Well I've got a little dream about the rest of my life
Find the perfect girlfriend and make her my wife
Start a little family and watch it grow
Visit on Sundays after we get old
Make enough love to last a whole life through
But it don't mean nothin' if I ain't got you

If I ain't got you
Baby it's all in vain
If I ain't got you
It's like a honeymoon with out champagne
A shiny set of rails without a train

I got a double-wide heart with room for two
But it don't mean nothin' if I ain't got you
No it don't mean nothin' if I ain't got you
Ah it don't mean nothin' if I ain't got you
