Lyrics
Ain't no hidden treasure
In this pot of gold you see
Ain't no way for you to make
No silky purse out of meI'm never ever gonna change your way
I dig you as you are
Cause you've got something that I want
And that's worth waiting forWhat you see is what you get
And you ain't seen nothing yet
What you see is what you get
And you ain't seen nothing yet
YeahI told you that I loved you
Right from the very start
Now don't you make me sorry girl
That I opened up my heartI know that I'm no angel
This ain't my first time out
But you can count on what I got
And what I got's a lot don't you knowWhat you see is what you get
And you ain't seen nothing yet
What you see is what you get
And you ain't seen nothing yetWhen it's cold I want it hot
I'm always wanting what is not
But when it comes to loving you
I'm yours no matter what you doYou're my baby, and I'm your man
This is mother natures plan
You're not too skinny, not too fat
Loving you is where it's at
What you see is what you get
And you ain't seen nothing yet
What you see is what you get
And you ain't seen nothing yet
What you see is what you get
And you ain't seen nothing yet
What you see is what you get

Lyrics to this song as published in US music paper Hit Parader October 1971
Interesting that the lyrics in the Hit Parader music paper have the fourth line as “No silly purse out of me”. However I am personally unable to hear this as “silly” but maybe I have listened to it too many times over the years to be able to accept it!!
