The Scene Changes - 1965
 
That Ain't All
 
I'm gonna buy you a big hat with feathers an' plumes
I'm gonna buy you a mansion with sixty thousand rooms
An' that ain't all . . .  no that ain't all!
 
I'm gonna buy you powder, I'm gonna buy you paint
Gonna fix you up an' make you look like somethin' you ain't
An' that ain't all . . .  no that ain't all!
 
I'm gonna buy you a fur piece, I'm gonna buy you gloves
I'll buy you anything if you will give me all of your love
An' that ain't all ( That ain't all! )  no that ain't all ( That ain't all! )
 
< instrumental break >
 
I'm gonna buy you a Rolls Royce, get you a chauffeur too
But the chauffeur's gonna be a woman just like you
An' that ain't all ( That ain't all! )  no that ain't all ( That ain't all! )
 
I'm gonna buy you dresses, 'till your wardrobe falls
You're gonna die of old age before you wear them all
An' that ain't all ( That ain't all! ) that ain't all ( That ain't all! )
 
< instrumental break >
 
If we're both a livin' in nineteen ninety-five 
they will have a pill by then to keep us both alive
An' that ain't all ( That ain't all! )  that ain't all ( That ain't all! )
 
All these things I'll buy you, if you'll just wait for me 
'cause I'll be out of prison in nineteen eighty-three
An' that is all ( And that is all! )  that is all ( And that is all! ) 
 
That is all ( And that is all! )  that is all!
