Lyrics:
Taking stock of what I have and what I haven't
What do I find?
The things I got will keep me satisfied
Checking up on what I have and what I haven't
What do I find?
A healthy balance on the credit side

Got no diamond, got no pearl
Still I think I'm a lucky girl
I got the sun in the morning
And the moon at night

Got no mansion, got no yacht
Still I'm happy with what I got
I got the sun in the morning
And the moon at night

Sunshine gives me a lucky day
Moonshine gives me the Milky Way

Got no checkbooks, got no banks
Still, I'd like to express my thanks
I got the sun in the morning
And the moon at night

And with the sun in the morning
And the moon in the evening
I'm alright

Got no butler, got no maid
Still I think I've been overpaid
I got the sun in the morning
And the moon at night
I got the sun in the morning
And the moon at night

Got no silver, got no gold
What I've got can't be bought or sold
I got the sun in the morning
And the moon at night
I got the sun in the morning
And the moon at night

Sunshine gives me a lucky day
Moonshine gives me the Milky Way

Got no diamond, got no pearl
Still Miss Annie's a lucky girl
I got the sun in the morning
Moon in the evening

Sun in the morning
And the moon in the evening
And I'm feeling alright
