I know momma loved me
I reckoned that dad thought I was a pretty good kid
I've been blamed
But I'm not ashed of a couple of things I did

I learned the golden rule before I started to school
Like every little young'n should do
But what am I worth on God's great earth
If I'm not worth nothing to you?

What am I worth here on earth
Darling, If I can't have you?
I just can't find no peace of mind
With anything that I do

I don't know why you made me cry
Honey, won't you give me a clue
What am I worth on God's great earth
If I'm not worth nothing to you?

I might get sent to be president
I'm sure I could do it for you
They would feature my face all over the place
For all the good things I do

I might get my name in the hall of fame
Or even in the book of "Who's-Who"
But what am I worth on God's great earth
If I'm mot worth nothin' to you?

What am I worth here on earth
Darling, If I can't have you?
I just can't find no peace of mind
With anything that I do

I don't know why you make me cry
Honey, won't you give me a clue?
What am I worth on God's great earth
If I'm not worth nothing to you?
