Song written by Cole Porter Ethel Merman - I've Still Got My Health Lyrics
(from "Panama Hattie" - 1940 Broadway Musical)
I wasn't born to stately halls of alabaster, I haven't given many ball for Mrs Astor. But .... ....
I'm always a flop at a top-notch affair, But I've still got my health, so what do I care? My best ring, alas, is a glass solitaire, But I still got my health, so what do I care?
By fashion and foppery, I'm never discussed. Attending the opry, my box would be a bust. I never shall have that Park Avenue aire, But I'm in such health, why should I care?
The hip that I shake doesn't make people stare, But I got such health, what do I care? The sight of my props never stops a thoroughfare, But I still got my health, so what do I care?
Your face is your fortune, so some wise men spoke. My face is my fortune, that's why I'm totally broke. My ship ain't come in, but I grin while I bear, 'cause I got my vitamins: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H I still have my. Got no diamonds, got no wealth. I got no men, but I got my health.
