Ruth Brown - A Good Day for the Blues

The Richest One

If I had a dollar for every time
You broke my heart and messed up my mind
I'd be the Richest One
I'd be the Richest One in the world
If bad times paid interest
I'd have you to thank
I'd be driving a new car
Have money in the bank
And I'd be the Richest One
I'd be the Richest One in the world
But money can't buy love
The kind I dream of is so hard to find
A good man's touch
In the morning when I rise
And baby I'd give up every single dime
If teardrops were diamonds
From the African mines
If heartaches were silver
My whole life would shine
And I'd be the Richest One
I'd be the Richest One in the world
I'd have yachts in the Riviera
Mansions in Spain
Oil wells in Texas; big diamond rings
I would go where I want to go
Do what I wanna do; be what I wanna be
And I'd be the Richest One
I'd be the Richest One in the world
