I'm no millionare
But I'm not the kind to care,
'Cause I've got a pocketful of dreams.
It's my universe,
Even with an empty purse,
'Cause I've got a pocketful of dreams.


I wouldn't take the wealth on Wall Street
For a road where nature trots,
And I calculate
I'm worth my weight
In Golden Rod!


Lucky lucky me,
I can live in luxury,
'Cause I've got a pocketful of dreams.
