My one and only heart My one and only heart You'll never more be lonely My one and only heart! I had five dollars from last week's pay Some picture postcards from Santa Fe I saved all that but I gave away My one and only heart! I met this angel in Joe's Café The livin' image of Salla Mae In no time even, I gave away My one and only heart! My one and only heart My one and only heart You'll never more be lonely My one and only heart! I've got one lighter that's off the beam A pawn shop ticket I can't redeem I saved all that but I gave a dream
My one and only heart! My poor knees trembled My whole frame shook She had me flippin' with just one look In one split second she went an' took My one and only heart! I've got two papers with last week's news Some extra laces for last year's shoes I saved all that but I had to lose My one and only heart! Well I'm real grateful to Joe's Café A blue-eyed plateful is sure OK And I'm not sorry I gave away My one and only heart! You'll never more be lonely My one and only, never lonely My one and only heart!
