Ain't Got No
Love Beyond Luxury: Phil Keaggy's Ain't Got No
Lyrics
Ain't got no fine Italian suit,
Expressing a lack of a high-end Italian suit.
Ain't got no pocket full of loot,
Indicating the absence of a pocket full of money or wealth.
Ain't got no box at the Met,
Not having a private box at the Metropolitan Opera.
Ain't got no private jet.
Absence of a private jet.
But I'll tell you what, what I've got,
Despite material lacks, the speaker emphasizes having love at a deep level.
I got love down to the bone,
Describing a profound and genuine love, reaching to the core.
I've got love solid as stone,
Comparing love to something solid and unyielding like stone.
I've got love that's leading me home,
Love as a guiding force leading the speaker home.
Love is gonna see me through.
Confidence that love will help overcome challenges.
Ain't got no foreign sports car,
Acknowledging the absence of a luxury foreign sports car.
Ain't got no beluga caviar,
Not having the extravagance of beluga caviar.
Ain't got no big yacht at the beach,
Expressing the lack of a large yacht by the beach.
Ain't got no date with Robin Leach.
No scheduled date with Robin Leach, referencing a luxurious lifestyle.
But I'll tell you what, what I've got,
Reiteration of possessing profound love despite material lacks.
I got love down to the bone,
Reaffirming the depth of love, down to the bone.
I've got love solid as stone,
Comparing love to something as unyielding and enduring as stone.
I've got love that's leading me home,
Love as a guiding force leading the speaker home.
Love is gonna see me through.
Confidence that love will be a sustaining force.
This world of the rich and famous,
Reflecting on the world of the rich and famous.
That's alright for what it is,
Accepting it for what it is, without idealizing it.
But what it's not is the good life
Clarifying that true fulfillment comes from being spiritually connected.
That you can only have when you're His.
Highlighting that genuine 'good life' is found in spiritual connection.
But I'll tell you what, what I've got,
Reiteration of possessing profound love despite material lacks.
I got love down to the bone,
Reaffirming the depth of love, down to the bone.
I've got love solid as stone,
Comparing love to something as unyielding and enduring as stone.
I've got love that's leading me home,
Love as a guiding force leading the speaker home.
Love is gonna see me through.
Confidence that love will be a sustaining force.
