Irving Berlin
I’m Puttin’ All My Eggs In One Basket
[Preamble: Louis Armstrong]
I've been a roaming Romeo
My Juliets have been many
But now my roaming days have gone
Too many irons in the fire
Is worse than not having any
I've had my share and from now on

[Verse 1: Louis Armstrong]
I'm putting all my eggs in one basket
I'm betting everything I've got on you, mama

[Verse 2: Louis Armstrong]
I'm giving all my love to one baby
Lord, help me if my baby don't come through

[Bridge: Louis Armstrong]
I've got a great big amount
Saved up in my love account
Honey, and I've decided
Love divided in two won't do

[Verse 3: Louis Armstrong]
So I'm putting all my eggs in one basket
I'm betting everything I've got on you
[Preamble: Ella Fitzgerald]
I've been a roaming Juliet
My Romeos have been many
But now my roaming days have gone
Too many irons in the fire
Is worse than not having any
I've had my share and from now on

[Verse 1: Ella Fitzgerald]
I'm putting all my eggs in one basket
I'm betting everything I've got on you

[Verse 2: Ella Fitzgerald]
I'm giving all my love to one baby
Lord, help me if my baby don't come through

[Bridge: Ella Fitzgerald]
I've got a great big amount
Saved up in my love account
Honey, and I've decided
Love divided in two won't do

[Verse 3: Ella Fitzgerald]
So I'm putting all my eggs in one basket
I'm betting everything I've got on you
[Verse 1: Ella Fitzgerald]
I'm putting all my eggs in one basket
I'm betting everything I've got on you

[Verse 2: Louis Armstrong]
Yes, I'm giving all my love to one baby
Lord, help me if my baby don't come through, yes

[Bridge: Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong]
I've got a great big amount
Saved up in my love account
Yes and honey, I've decided
Love divided, in two won't do

[Verse 3: Both]
So I'm putting all my eggs in one basket
I'm betting everything I've got on you
I'm betting everything I've got on you
