Worth a Damn

by Jim Dalton

VIP membership exclusive

lyrics

I once wrote a song
That climbed up the charts
Hit number one
So I bought a new car

And I bought a house
With really big yard
And put in a pool
Shaped like a guitar

I hired a butler
My own gourmet chef
A personal driver
And my very own vet

To care for my monkey
and my pony named “Lou,"
My 2 pet chinchillas
And the rest of my zoo

But it ain’t worth a damn
No matter what I do
No matter what I have
Ain’t worth a damn without you

Used some of my fortune
And got me a boat
Then I bought a castle
Complete with a moat

I started a restaurant and
My own line of clothes
For most other folks
It’d be enough I suppose

But it ain’t worth a damn
No matter what I do
No matter what I have
Ain’t worth a damn without you

Then I made a movie
It won some awards
Was a true documentary
About a guy who wanted more

It won me an Oscar
Even beat out Johnny Depp
And a song from the soundtrack
Was my biggest hit yet

Still it ain’t worth a damn
No matter what I do
No matter what I have
Ain’t worth a damn without you
