Carmen McRae

Carmen Mercedes McRae (April 8, 1920 – November 10, 1994) was an American jazz singer, composer, pianist, and actress. Considered one of the most influential jazz vocalists of the 20th century, it was her behind-the-beat phrasing and her ironic interpretations of song lyrics that made her memorable. McRae drew inspiration from Billie Holiday, but established her own distinctive voice. She went on to record over 60 albums, enjoying a rich musical career, performing and recording in the United States, Europe, and Japan. more »

I'm putting all my eggs in one basket 
I'm betting ev'rything I've got on you 

I'm giving all my love to one baby 
Heaven help me if my baby don't come through 

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 

So 
I'm putting all my eggs in one basket 
I'm betting everything I've got on you 

[2] 
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: 

I'm putting all my eggs in one basket 
I'm betting ev'rything I've got on you 

I'm giving all my love to one baby 
Heaven help me if my baby don't come through 

I've tried to love more than one 
Finding it just can't be done 
Honey 
There's one I lie to 
When I try to 
Be true 
To two 

So 
I'm putting all my eggs in one basket 
I'm betting everything I've got on you
