Standard (EADGBE)

If you got a Cadillac, boy, and a forty-room shack, boy,

A bucket full of money and a tree full of honey,

But if you're gettin' no huggin', no smoochin' or a-muggin'.

If you ain't lovin', then you ain't livin'.

If you're ridin' on a gravy train instead of walkin down lover's lane,

You can't make hay, boy, 'cause you're goin' the wrong way boy.

You gotta get a little honey, it's better than money.

If you ain't lovin', then you ain't livin'.

If they call you a big man 'cause you gotta lotta bottom land.

If you're kin to the president and you help run the government,

But if you're gettin' no attention, you're better off on a pension.

If you ain't lovin', then you ain't livin'.

If you got a string of long cars and you're smokin' them four-bit cigars.

You ain't so well to do unless you get a little koochi-koo.

It takes a little bit of smackin' - all your life's a-lackin'.

If you ain't lovin', then you ain't livin'.
