I Can't Get My Hands On You Lyrics - Jeff Healey

I've got two islands in the Bahamas 

Got some land in the south of France 

I am gonna get me a house out on Malibu beach 

Just as soon as I get the chance 

Though I ain't got a driver's license 

I've got a Rolls and five limousines 

I've got every little thing that money can buy 

And I guess that I am a man of means 

Well, I've got a lot of things, baby, in this world 

But I can't get my hands on you 

Once I loaned out a whole lot of money 

To a man who I called my friend 

And he skipped town without paying me back 

Well, he'll never pull that trick again

And though it ain't always been this easy 

I worked hard to get to this spot 

And all that it took was determination 

To get all the things that I've got 

You see, I've got a lot of things, baby, in this world 

But I can't get my hands on you 

No, no, no 

Hey! 

Well, I guess if I had to admit it 

In my life, I've done okay 

Whenever they told me that I couldn't get something 

I went out and found me a way 

But with you, it's a different story, baby 

You just won't give me a break 

How am I gonna face all of my friends 

My whole reputation's at stake 

Photos 

You see, I've got a lot of things, baby, in this world 

But I can't get my hands on you 

Oh, I can't do it, baby 

No, no, no 

Can't get a hand on you
