I'm Putting All My Eggs in the Same Basket - Carmen McRae

I’ve been a roaming romeo

My juliets have been many

But now my roaming days have gone

Too many irons in the fire

Is worse than not having any

I’ve had my share and from now on:

I’m putting all my eggs in one basket

I’m betting ev’rything I’ve got on you

I’m giving all my love to one baby

Heaven help me if my baby don’t come through

I’ve got a great big amount

Saved up in my love account

Honey

And I’ve decided

Love divided

In two

Won’t do So

I’m putting all my eggs in one basket

I’m betting everything I’ve got on you

I’ve been a roaming juliet

My romeos have been many

But now my roaming days have gone

Too many irons in the fire

Is worse than not having any

I’ve had my share and from now on:

I’m putting all my eggs in one basket

I’m betting ev’rything I’ve got on you

I’m giving all my love to one baby

Heaven help me if my baby don’t come through

I’ve tried to love more than one

Finding it just can’t be done

Honey

There’s one I lie to When I try to Be true

To two

So

I’m putting all my eggs in one basket

I’m betting everything I’ve got on you
