The StylisticsCan't Give You Anything (But My Love) Lyrics:
If I had money I'd go wild buy you furs
Dress you like a queen
And in a chauffeured limousine
We'd look so fine
But I'm an ordinary guy
And my pockets are empty
Just an ordinary guy
But I'm yours till I die
I can't give you anything
But my love, but my love
I can't give you anything
But my love, but my love
I cannot promise you the world
Can't afford any fancy things
I cannot buy you diamond rings
No string of pearls
But my devotion I will give all my life
Just to you girl
My devotion I will give for as long as I live
I can't give you anything
But my love, but my love

1 Not to be confused with, "I Can't Give You Anything But Love (Baby) from
the late 1920s revue, "Lew Leslie's Blackbirds of 1928," which was
popularized by Aida Ward & William McClean. In 1936 Billy Holiday revived
it, and then again in 1943 it was a hit for Lena Horn & Bill Robinson.
This song didn't enjoy that much longevity.
2 Personnell: Russell Thompkins Jr., James Dunn, Herbie Murrell, James
Smith & Airrion Love. Thompkins was the lead vocalist with a great falsetto
and the other four men sang backup harmony.
