Lyrics
Taking stock of what I have
And what I haven’t, what do I find?
The things I’ve got will keep me satisfied
Checking up on what I have
And what I haven’t, what do I find?
A healthy balance on the credit side
Chorus
Got no diamond, got no pearl
Still I think I’m a lucky girl
I got the sun in the morning
And the moon at night
Got no mansion, got no yacht
Still I’m happy with what I’ve got
I got the sun in the morning
And the moon at night
Sunshine gives me a lovely day
Moonlight gives me the Milky Way
Got no checkbooks, got no banks
Still I’d like to express my thanks
I got the sun in the morning
And the moon at night
And with the sun in the morning
And the moon in the evening
I’m alright
