I don't get the lyrics in one part, when he sings "if you play for high stakes, you might play with ......" Is it hard eggs, or heart aches, and what does it mean?
Now don't put all your dreams in one basket. Don't put all your hope in one heart Fie if you discover That she loves another You'll be licked before you start. Now don't put all your dreams in one basket. Love is such a fragile thing And if you should break it Are you sure you can take it? How would your heart forget to sing?Don't put all your dreams in one basket. Don't upset your applecart. She may think she's clever And leave you forever. Then what will you tell your heart?So don't put your dreams in one basket. Best made plans may go astray If you play for hard stakes You might play with heartaches Never throw your dreams away Never throw your dreams away.
I love it when he gets this pure tone in his voice, this is the Ray Charles nobody knows about
Great, great song. Thanks for the upload. This song seems to sum up love very well, especially those who know what its like to love and let love go.
Beautiful words....
Give me 'Lonely Avenue' any day.

Now don't put all your dreams in one basket.
Don't put all your hope in one heart
Fie if you discover
That she loves another
You'll be licked before you start. Now don't put all your dreams in one basket.
Love is such a fragile thing
And if you should break it
Are you sure you can take it?
How would your heart forget to sing?Don't put all your dreams in one basket.
Don't upset your applecart.
She may think she's clever
And leave you forever.
Then what will you tell your heart?So don't put your dreams in one basket.
Best made plans may go astray
If you play for hard stakes
You might play with heartaches
Never throw your dreams away
Never throw your dreams away.
