If You Love Me - Fats Waller

Everybody calls me good for nothing

Because I cannot tell the distance to a star

But I can tell the world how wonderful you are

I’m good for nothing but love

Night and day they call me good for nothing

Because I cannot name a single bird that flies

But I can write a book about your lovely eyes

I’m good for nothing but love

Fish in the sea are a mystery to me

And so is the moon and tide

Without of all these things my heart laughs and sings

Whenver you’re by my side (You sweet rascal you!)

I guess I’ll always be a good-for-nothing

A good-for-nothing can be good for something too

Because I heard you whisper, «Baby, I love ya!»

It proves to ya: I’m good for nothing but love
