You Can't Have Everything

Say there, if you are a vexed one

A dreary, weary and perplexed one

I've got trouble and he's got trouble

And you're no better than the next one!

You will find your share of bliss

If you'll just remember this;

You can't have everything

Be satisfied with the little you may get

You can't have everything

Don't envy neighbours or the fortunes that they get!

Live and laugh and listen

Don't be greedy

Help the needy

And ya gotta get lucky, yes indeedy!

Rich man, poor man, beggar or king

You just can't have everything

So thank your stars above

For a song in your heart

A penny in your pocket

And someone in your arms to love

You can't have everything

Be satisfied with the little you may get

You can't have everything

Don't envy neighbours or the fortunes that they get!

Live and laugh and listen

Don't be greedy

Help the needy

And ya gotta get lucky, yes indeedy!

Rich man, poor man, beggar or king

You just can't have everything

So thank your stars above

For a song in your heart

A penny in your pocket

And someone in your arms to love
