Songtexte




When I had money, money O
I knew no joy till I went poor
For many a false man as a friend
Came knocking all day at my door.
Then felt I like a child
That holds a trumpet
That he must not blow
Because a man is dead
I dared not speak to let this false world know
Much had I thought of life
And seen how poor man's
Hearts are ever light
And how their wives do hum like bees
About their work from morn till night
So when I hear these poor ones laugh
And see the rich ones coldly frown
Poor men think I need not go up
So much as rich men should come down
When I had money, money O
I knew no joy till I went poor
For many a false man as a friend
Came knocking all day at my door
All Day, at my door.
