Finish The Lyric: "Ain't got nothin' but love, babe"?

The story behind the answer

The lyric “Ain't got nothin' but love, babe” is from “Eight Days a Week” by the Beatles. The line appears near the beginning of the song’s chorus, which celebrates overwhelming devotion through playful exaggeration.

“Eight Days a Week” was written primarily by Paul McCartney, with credit shared with John Lennon, and recorded by the Beatles in 1964. It was released in the United Kingdom on the album Beatles for Sale and became the group’s first number-one single in the United States in 1965. The title came from a remark about being extremely busy, reportedly made by drummer Ringo Starr, though the story has sometimes been retold differently.

The song is notable for its unusual opening: an experimental fade-in created from repeated guitar chords, followed by a bright pop arrangement. Listeners sometimes confuse this lyric with other Beatles love songs because the group frequently used “babe” and similarly direct romantic language. The answer is the song title, not the name of an album or film.
