Like a dollar in my pocket It's burning in my chest I prayed the whole way over here But I'm still scared to death I know you don't know me As well as you'd like to So I think we should have a talk, sir If you've got a few I don't have much money And I don't have a ring But what I got's a whole lot better Than all those fancy things I swear to you I'll love her Until my dying days I'll give her the best of me If you'll give her away ♪ She's your only daughter And y'all are thick as thieves So maybe there's a chance you know How much she feels for me I don't have much money And I don't have a ring But what I got's a whole lot better Than all those fancy things I swear to you I'll love her Until my dying days I'll give her the best of me If you'll give her away Sir, I sure hope you will approve 'Cause I know there's no other man She's loved more than you I don't have much money And I don't have a ring But what I got's a whole lot better Than all those fancy things I swear to you I'll love her Until my dying days I'll give her the best of me If you'll give her away I'll give her the best of me If you'll give her away
