nothing for ye

joshua burnside

i have nothing for ye

today my love

my wallet is empty i spent the whole lot

on taxis and cigarettes

and drinks at the bar

now i have nothing for ye today my love

i have nothing for ye

today my pet

no eggs for your breakfast

nor bread for to set

you up for the long day ahead

no

i have nothing for ye

today my pet

no

i have nothing for ye

today my pet

i have nothing for ye

today my dear

no oil in the tank

the water i fear will be as cold as the rain

that falls in december

no

i have nothing for ye today my dear

well

i have nothing for ye

my sweet darling

if i had enough money

i'd buy you a ring

for i'm worried someday

you'll run off

with a doctor

cause i had nothing for ye

my sweet darling

yes

i had nothing for ye

my sweet darling

my mother before she died

told me

son

if you must be a singer

well you ought to run

down to the dole office

and sign on today

for that's where you'll be

collecting your pay

yes

that's where you'll be

collecting your pay

no i have nothing for ye

today my love

my wallet is empty i spent the whole lot

on taxis and cigarettes

and drinks at the bar

now i have nothing for ye today my love
