It's beautiful when you come into the world
ย
'Cause you don't know nothin' 'bout nothin'
'Til you wake up and see the world
ย
And if you're lucky, oh, you might make it halfway down the world
ย
But life ain't easy, life ain't a big bowl of charms
ย
And everybody take their chances, and everybody goes from arm to arms
ย
But they say, you can't love but one woman, if she's got all the charm
ย
But I know better, a lot of people doin' better than me
ย
But that don't make me mad, 'cause I was too blind to see
ย
But everybody got a chance, that's what they say
But you can't prove it to me
ย
The rich get richer, the poor get poor
And the prostitutes stay along the streets
But the high class, uh, knock on the door
Everybody gets lucky, you better believe it
You got to be smart to live in this world with charm
ย
And a lot of women don't need no man
And a lot of men don't need no woman
But they gotta have love and its charm
Now you can take my wife, now don't do that to me
They call genie's love for the man and me
I ain't done nothin' extra
I never went no far or nothing, nothing like that
ย
But I learned from the other people
You gotta have money to live like that
If you don't know what you're doin'
You do it for somebody else
You can get out in the world and go live by yourself
You heard this song a long time ago
Man went in the mountain
And he made a fortune when he come back and sang
ย
Now pay attention
ย
Takes stock, takes personality, takes love, takes understanding
Takes a few
ย
Nothing personally, but I know a friend
Who left the world quick, and his life ends
But he told me something, and you believe it, he had charm
ย
And he said, "When you make love
Be sure you hold the girls tight in your arms"
