Goodnight, Texas - A Bank Robber's Nursery Rhyme (Live) Lyrics

Lyrics A Bank Robber's Nursery Rhyme (Live) - Goodnight , Texas



I haven't got a penny, haven't got a dime
But I know how to have a good old time
I ain't got a dollar, baby when I do
Gonna go and spend it all on you
When we get the money we can run away
And sing a little song 'bout yesterday
They're never gonna catch me, long as I'm alive
You and me together, we'll survive
Honey in the pantry, put it in the tea
And stir it with a spoon for you and me
Sitting in the parlor, waiting for your ma
You're the best gal I ever saw
When we get the money, we can run away
I don't give a holler what they say
Never gonna find us, 'til the day we die
You and me together, we'll get by
Putting your dress and looking mighty fine
Lacquerin' my shoes until they shine
You can have my heart if I can have your hand
I can make your daddy understand
I haven't got a penny, haven't got a dime
But I know how to have a good old time
I ain't got a dollar, baby when I do
Gonna go and spend it all on you
Break the lock box, get the gold
Just as much as I can hold
Out the door, to the car
Oh, together we'll go far
This is a hold up, mamma
I was born to be a bank robber
Hand over your last gold dollar
This is a hold up, mamma
This is a hold up, mamma
This is a hold up, mamma
This is a hold up
Never gonna catch me, long as I'm alive
You and me together, we'll survive
