Songtexte Love in My Heart - Don McLean

Well, there's food on the table and love in my heart
And a real good woman and a couple of
Kids and a dog that thinks I'm smart
I got a big old mortgage on a little old
House and a car that'll sometimes start
But there's food on the table and love in my heart

Oh, the roof is leaking, but I care not
Gather those buckets, pans and pots
Carry 'em and pour 'em in the sink a lot
And turn the heat up higher
I don't have much that didn't come free
Bills eat up my salary
But I can still hang goodies on the Christmas tree
And sing by a cracklin' fire

And there's food on the table and love in my heart
And a real good woman and a couple of
Kids and a dog that thinks I'm smart
I got a big old mortgage on a little old
House and a car that'll sometimes start
But there's food on the table and love in my heart

Well, I don't have money, but I sure ain't poor
And many a rich man still wants more
Sooner or later he buys a store
And he still ain't satisfied
It never took much to make me smile
A new pair of jeans to keep in style
And a little bit of lovin' every once in a while
To stroke my foolish pride

And some food on the table and love in my heart
And a real good woman to call me honey and to hold me in the dark
Oh, the winds may howl and the roof
Cave in and the world may fall apart
But there's food on the table and love in my heart

Food on the table and love in my heart
And a real good woman and a couple of
Kids and a dog that thinks I'm smart
I got a big old mortgage on a little old
House and a car that'll sometimes start
But there's food on the table and love in my heart
Food on the table and love in my heart
