Mister shylock was stingy

I was miserly too.

I was more selfish

And crabby than a shellfish.

Oh, dear, it's queer

What love can do!

I'd give all my possessions

For you

I've got five dollars

I'm in good conditions

And i've got ambition

That belongs to you.

Six shirts and collars

Debts beyond endurance

On my life insurance

That belongs to you!

I've got a heart

That must be spurtin'!

Just be certain

I'll be true

Take my five dollars!

Take my shirt and collars!

Take my heart and hollers!

"ev'rything i've got belongs to you!"

I've got five dollars

Eighty-five relations

Two lace combinations

They belongs to you!

Two coats with collars

Ma and grandma wore'em

All the moths adore 'em

They belongs to you!

I've got two lips

That care for mating

Therefore waiting

Will not do!

Take my five dollars!

Take my shirt and collars!

Take my heart and hollers!

"ev'rything i've got belongs to you!"
