I’ve got just about everything that I need
To make this life that I lead an enjoyable thing
I’ve got bluebirds and posies and robins and rosies
All kinds of flowers that bloom
All kinds of birds that sing
I’ve got just about everything that I want
To make this Earth that I walk a miraculous place
I’ve got fresh air and sunshine and mountains and may wine
And what is really a boon: I love the human race
When I say just about, just about, just about everything
I mean I must admit: one thing is really missing
Well, I’m not complaining
With or without it I still got what I got
But you could better my life with some of your huggin’ and kissin’
That’s what I’m missin’
Just say those words that I long to hear you say
And then my life will be complete and full to the top
And I’ll share all my treasures, my riches and pleasures
Makin the two of us one
That’s all that need be done
Say you’ll be my own, my one and only one
Then I can say I’ve got everything I need
I’ve got just about everything that it takes
To set the scene and make it a marvelous bit
I’ve got barrels of laughter and hope ever after
And though I don’t like to boast, shucks baby I’ve got “it”
I’ve got just about everything that there is
To make this her’s and his a terrific affair
I’ve got dewdrops and oceans and all kinds of notions
And since I dig you the most I’ve got the urge to share
Thought I’ve got just about, just about, just about everything
I know for sure by now I really need what’s lacking
No doubt about it, living without it I might turn out a slob
At best remain just a blob
So darling won’t you supply it? Come on, let’s try it
I could go on just as I am year after year
Yet with that one thing more I know I’ll reach the divine
That’s to have you and hold you and now that I’ve told you
Please make a positive sign
Saying that you’ll be mine
And we’ll have everything
Oh, how my heart will sing
Then I can say I’ve got everything I need
