Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've got nothing I can give you, babe
I got no money in the bank
I got nothing I can give you
I got no money in the bank
I've spent down my every dollar
All those years I drank
[Verse 2]
I got no place I can take you
I got no room to call my own
I got no place I can take you
I got no room to call my own
I've got no landlord or landlady
No, I don't even have a phone
[Verse 3]
I got no song that I can sing you
I can't even stay in tune
Try to tell you that I love you, baby
But I'm howling at the moon
I ain't got no fancy wardrobe
Just this shirt that's on my back
But I know that I can love you, baby
More than any other Jack
[Verse 4]
Come over here, baby, (Yeah) I got the love
[Verse 5]
I can make the magic happen
You don't see me wearing diamonds
You don't see me wearing gold
But I got that special something
Warm you up when you get cold
I'll go to work for you, baby
I'll build you up a pretty home
[Verse 6]
We'll take a train to Chicago, baby
We'll even fly a plane to Rome
I got a love that lasts forever, baby
I ain't got nothing more
I got a love that lasts forever, baby
I ain't got nothing more
Oh, give me one little chance
I'll show you, baby, what I got in store
[Verse 7]
What do you need from me, baby?
What do you want from me?
What do you need from me, baby? (Baby, baby, I need love)
What do you want from me?
I'll make the magic happen
Come on over here and see
Come with me, baby
[Verse 8]
You know I asked my friend Jimmy
Asked my friend John (I know John)
And I asked my friend Willy and then
Asked my friend Don
I said what do you think, friends
Do you know what they said, know what they said?
They said, "gimme one little chance, little chance"
Show you what I got instead
