Lyrics Lad's Got Money - Live At Rockpalast / 1980 - Ronnie Lane

Well they came around late one night
Yes, they came around to put things right
They found dad′s horse at the end of his chain
Oh, thank the Lord, that we had moved on
When lads has got money, lads thinks they're man
But when a man′s got no money, he's just lads again
We never lingered, we kept moving on
Dad plied his trade and the bread it was won
But us lads did squander, not a penny we've saved
Spent all the money the old man he made
When lads has got money, lads think they′re man
But when a man′s got no money, he's just lads again
Ooh, wer′e wondering was never done
The old man passed on and we won't tell he′s gone
It took his two closed to open your eye
To that old song he sung all his life
When lads has got money, lads thinks they're man
But when the man′s got no money, he's just lads again
