All For The Love Of Lil - Louis Jordan and his Tympany Five

I’ve got plenty money in my jeans

Feelin' like a man of means

I’d give up all those other queens

All for the love of Lil

No more nights of sloppy Joe’s

No more bettin' on the nose

I’d give up all my fancy clothes

All for the love of Lil

Every night when all the boys

Congregate to have a ball

Although they should have called

I won’t pay no mind at all

No more jivin' round the town

No more actin' like a clown

Jack, I’m gonna settle down

All for the love of Lil

I’ve got some money in my jeans

I’m feelin' like a man of means

Give up all those other queens

All for the love of Lil

Every night when all the boys

Congregate to have a ball

Although they should have called

I won’t pay no mind at all

No more nights of sloppy Joe’s

No more bettin' on the nose

I’d give up all my fancy clothes

All for the love of Lil
