I've Got What It Takes But It Breaks My Heart To Give It Away - Bessie Smith[00:00:01]

Oh stingy Ginny saved up all her pennies[00:00:10]

Straight to the bank she would go[00:00:14]

The sharks would have their hands around her[00:00:18]

But none could get her dough[00:00:22]

Ginny's fellow was a slick high yeller[00:00:27]

Sent away to jail one day[00:00:32]

He cried for bail then turned real pale[00:00:36]

When I heard Ginny say[00:00:41]

I've got what it takes[00:00:44]

But it breaks my heart to give it away[00:00:46]

It's in demand they want it everyday[00:00:54]

I've been saving it up for a long long time[00:01:02]

To give it away would be more than a crime[00:01:07]

Your eyes may roll your teeth may grit[00:01:11]

But none of my money will you get[00:01:15]

You can look at my bank book[00:01:20]

But I'll never let you feel my purse[00:01:22]

Oh the one woman[00:01:28]

Who believes in safety first safety first[00:01:31]

And if you want my money here's my plan[00:01:38]

I'm saving it up for a real good man[00:01:42]

I've got what it takes[00:01:47]

But it breaks my heart to give it away[00:01:49]

I've got what it takes[00:01:56]

But it breaks my heart to give it away[00:01:57]

It's in demand folks crying for it every day[00:02:05]

I've been saving it up for a long long time[00:02:13]

To give it away would be more than a crime[00:02:18]

Your eyes may roll your teeth may grit[00:02:22]

But none of this small change will you get[00:02:27]

You can look at my bank book[00:02:31]

But I'll never let you put your hands on my purse[00:02:34]

Lord I'm one woman[00:02:40]

Who believes in safety first safety first[00:02:43]

And if you want my money here's my plan[00:02:49]

I'm not saving it up for those naked man[00:02:54]

I've got what it takes[00:02:58]

But it breaks my heart to give it away[00:03:00]
