"All I Have to Offer You Is Me" is an American country music song made famous in 1969 by Charley Pride.
The song, released that June, reached the top of the "Billboard magazine" Hot Country Singles chart that August, and in doing so it became his first No. 1 song. It also accomplished a feat not done in 25 years: an African American entertainer having a No. 1 hit on the "Billboard" country chart. The last song by a black performer to reach the summit was "Is You Is Or Is You Ain't (Ma' Baby)" by Louis Jordan, in July 1944. Pride became the third black singer to have a No. 1 country hit (the Nat King Cole-led King Cole Trio had a No. 1 hit earlier in 1944).
While Cole would top the charts only once and Jordan twice, "All I Have to Offer You Is Me" would be the first of 29 No. 1 hits for Pride, spanning to 1983's "Night Games."
A cover version was recorded by McBride & the Ride on their 1992 album "Sacred Ground".
