[00:00.00]I've Got What It Takes (But It Breaks My Heart to Give It Away) (Remastered 2016) - Bessie Smith
[00:04.88]Written by：RR/Papa Charlie Jackson / Harold Jenkins / Spencer Williams
[00:09.77]Oh stingy Ginny
[00:10.99]Saved up all her pennies
[00:14.20]Straight to the bank she would go
[00:18.66]The sharks would have
[00:20.09]Their hands around her
[00:23.14]But none could get her dough
[00:27.68]Ginny's fellow
[00:28.77]Was a slick high yeller
[00:32.10]Sent away to jail one day
[00:36.63]He cried for bail
[00:37.99]Then turned real pale
[00:41.00]When I heard Ginny say
[00:44.90]Oh I've got what it takes
[00:46.65]But it breaks
[00:47.52]My heart to give it away
[00:54.47]It's in demand
[00:56.56]They wants it every day
[01:02.24]I've been saving it up
[01:04.46]For a long long time
[01:07.23]To give it away
[01:08.91]Would be more than a crime
[01:11.54]Your eyes may roll
[01:13.82]Your teeth may grit
[01:16.09]But none of my money
[01:18.54]Will you git
[01:19.98]You can look at my bank book
[01:22.19]But I'll never
[01:22.92]Let you feel my purse
[01:28.92]'Cause I'm a woman
[01:32.23]Believes in safety first safety first
[01:37.94]Said if you want my money
[01:40.64]Here's my plan
[01:42.85]I'm saving it up
[01:44.80]For a real good man
[01:47.21]I've got what it takes
[01:49.18]But it breaks my heart
[01:50.72]To give it away
[01:56.03]I've got what it takes
[01:57.91]But it breaks my heart
[01:59.69]To give it away
[02:05.87]It's in demand
[02:07.43]Folks cryin' for it every day
[02:13.72]I've been saving it up
[02:16.02]For a long long time
[02:18.76]To give it away
[02:20.40]Would be more than a crime
[02:23.15]Your eyes may roll
[02:25.46]Your teeth may grit
[02:27.47]But none of this small change
[02:30.50]Will you git
[02:31.92]You can look at my bank book
[02:33.75]But I'll never let you
[02:35.32]Put your hands on my purse
[02:40.72]Lord I'm a woman
[02:44.05]Believes in safety first
[02:47.50]Safety first
[02:49.76]Say if you want my money
[02:52.51]Here's my plan
[02:54.73]I'm not saving it up
[02:56.39]For no naked man
[02:59.16]I've got what it takes
[03:01.05]But it breaks my heart
[03:02.63]To give it away
