Gold and silver have I none
I can give you more
Gold and silver have I none
I can give you love

Don't have a goldmine or a mansion
Haven't even got you a diamond ring
Deep in my heart I've got the secret
Now I'm going to share it with you

Gold and silver have I none
I can give you more
Gold and silver have I none
I can give you love

They can have the gold in Fort Knox, Kentucky
As for us, we'll stand by love
I knew a man once, had lots of money
Crying every night for love

Gold and silver have I none
I can give you more
Gold and silver have I none
I can give you love

I'd rather have a sweet girl's lovin'
Than to hold a rich man's gold
Ain't got a penny in my pocket
So we're gonna live on love

Gold and silver have I none
I can give you more
Gold and silver have I none
I can give you love

Hah-hah-hah-hah-hah-hah
Ho-ho-ho-ho
Hah-hah-hah-ho-ho........FADE
