Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
When the money's gone Will you be my friend Float a small row boat till our ship comes in When the winter nights chill us to the soul Will you feed the fire Spin the straw to gold When the money's gone When the money's gone Will you get cold feet Will you still be there if the ends don't meet If we're in the red, just forget the green Take a bus with me No more limousines When the money's gone Will you still want me [Chorus] Oh what a fine life I give to you All you ever want Will you still be there Will you pull me through when the cash don't come And if you're mine Will you still love me wherever we fall When the money's gone Oh, will you want me baby Oh, will you need me baby Oh, will you love me baby When the money's gone Money, money, money's gone When the money's gone No more caviar Will you eat fast food in a beat up car Live life modestly, lost in lotto dreams Will you find your way through it all with me Through it all with me [Chorus] And a mile off the shore Flies a bird who'll land no more As the tide pulls the sea So you always will pull me forever more [Chorus]
