| Bill collectors gather round and
|
| Rather haunt the cottage next door
|
| Men the grocer and butcher sent
|
| Men who call for the rent
|
| But within, a happy chappy
|
| And his bride of only a year
|
| Seem to be so cheerful
|
| Here’s an earful of the chatter you hear
|
| Every morning, every evening
|
| Ain’t we got fun?
|
| Not much money
|
| Oh, but honey
|
| Ain’t we got fun?
|
| The rent’s unpaid dear
|
| We haven’t a bus
|
| But smiles were made, dear
|
| For people like us
|
| In the winter, in the summer
|
| Don’t we got fun?
|
| Times are bum and getting bummer
|
| Still we have fun
|
| There’s nothing surer
|
| The rich get rich and the poor get children
|
| In the meantime, in between time
|
| Ain’t we got fun?

|
| Just to make their trouble nearly double
|
| Something happened last night
|
| To their chimney, a grey bird came
|
| Mr Stork is his name
|
| And I’ll bet two pins a pair of twins
|
| Just happn’d in with the bird
|
| Still they’re very gay and merry
|
| Just at dawning I heard:
|
| Every morning, every evening
|
| Don’t we have fun?
|
| Twins and cares, dear
|
| Come in pairs, dear
|
| Don’t we have fun?
|
| We’ve only started as mommer and pop
|
| Are we down-hearted?
|
| I’ll say that we’re not, no!
|
| Landlord’s mad and getting madder
|
| Ain’t we got fun?
|
| Times are bad and getting badder
|
| Still we have fun
|
| There’s nothing surer
|
| The rich get rich and the poor get laid off
|
| In the meantime, in between time
|
| Ain’t we got fun?
|
| Streetcar seats are awful narrow
|
| But we got fun
|
| They won’t smash up our Pierce-Arrow
|
| We ain’t got none
|
| There’s nothing surer
|
| The rich get rich and the poor get laid off
|
| In the meantime, in between time
|
| Ain’t we got fun? |
