My One and Only Heart
My one and only heart
My one and only heart
You'll nevermore be lonely
My one and only heart
I had five dollars from last week's pay
some picture postcards from Santa Fe
I saved all that but I gave away
My one and only heart
I met this angel in Joe's Café
The livin' image of Salome
In no time even I gave away
My one and only heart
I've got one lighter that's off the beam
A pawnshop ticket I can't redeem
I saved all that but I gave a dream
My one and only heart
My poor knees trembled'
My whole frame shook
She had me flippin' with just one look
In one split second, she went and took
My one and only heart
I've got two papers with last week's news
Some extra laces for last year's shoes
I saved all that but I had to lose
My one and only heart
Well, I'm real grateful to Joe's Café
My blue eyed plateful is sure O.K.
And I'm not sorry I gave away
My one and only heart
