I'll get by as long as I have you
Though there be rain and darkness too
I'll not complain, I'll see it through

Poverty may come to me, it's true
But what care I say, I'll get by
As long as I have you

I'll get by, oh yes, honey child, I'll get by
Just as long as I have you
And remember though there be rain
And of course a little darkness too
I ain't never gonna complain
Not me, I'll see it through

Poverty may come to me, it's true
But what care I say, I'll get by
As long as I have you
