Hey!
Chorus
SIb SOL#/SIb
Nothing's too good for my baby
SIb SOL#/SIb
Nothing's too good for my girl
SIb SOL#/SIb
Nothing's too good for my baby
SIb SOL#/SIb
Oh, no
(Nothing's too good for my girl)
Verse 1:
SIb SOL#
I'm the luckiest guy in the world
SIb SOL#
'Cause I've got one pearl of a girl
SIb SOL#
For my baby I work part-time
SIb SOL#
Down at the neighborhood five-and-dime
SIb SOL#
Half of my money goes to buy her
SIb SOL#
Some of the things her little heart desires
SIb SOL#
The other half goes dime by dime
SIb SOL#
To show my cookie a real good time, because
[repeat chorus]
Bridge 1:
DOm
She's sweet and she's kind
SIb
And she tells me that she's mine all mine, now
DO#
Ain't that lovin', ain't that livin'
FA MIb/FA
Ain't that half the fun of givin'
[repeat chorus]
Verse 2:
I walk around with my chest stuck out
'Cause my baby's worth bragging about
Every Johnnie, Jack, and Jim
Wished that she belonged to him
I gave up the old gang of mine
'Cause with my girl goes all my time
One of these days I'm gonna buy her a ring
And marry her - and everything, because
[repeat chorus]
Bridge 2:
She's sweet and she's mellow
And she tells me that I'm one heck of a fellow, now
Ain't that lovin', ain't that livin'
Ain't that half the fun of givin'
Coda:
SIb SOL#/SIb
Nothing's too good for my baby
SIb SOL#/SIb
Nothing's too good for my girl
[background voices continue]
She's all right and out of sight
And I love her ah-ha-ha, yeah ah-ah-ha-ha-ha ha
Ah-ha-ha yeah, I'm gonna get her a diamond ring, everything [fade]
