I'm always a flop at a top-notch affair,

But i've still got my health, so what do i care?

My best ring, alas, is a glass solitaire,

But i still got my health, so what do i care?



By fashion and foppery, i'm never discussed.

Attending the opry, my box would be a bust.

I never shall have that park avenue aire,

But i'm in such health, why should i care?



The hip that i shake doesn't make people stare,

But i got such health, what do i care?

The sight of my props never stops a thoroughfare,

But i still got my health, so what do i care?



Your face is your fortune, so some wise men spoke.

My face is my fortune, that's why i'm totally broke.

My ship ain't come in, but i grin while i bear,

'cause i got my vitamins:

A, b, c, d, e, f, g, h

I still have my.

Got no diamonds, got no wealth.

I got no men, but i got my health.
