Lyrics We've Got the Money - Chris De Burgh

We've Got the Money

Well the king is up in London with his lovely little wench
She is on her knees giving him a bit of French
But he’ll never get to heaven with a native tongue (oh? Why)
'Cause we’ve got the money and he’s got none
The sheriff’s in the forest and he’s hunting high and low
He’s never gonna find us 'cause he’s much too slow
We’re having a drink and having a laugh and having fun (oh? Why)
'Cause we’ve got the money and he’s got none
We’ve got the money and he’s got none
We’ve got the money and he’s got none
So let us have a drink to the health of Robin Hood
He showed us how to fight them in the woods
Oh, the sheriff and the king, well, their day is done (oh? Why)
'Cause we’ve got the money and he’s got none
We’ve got the money and they’ve got none
We’ve got the money and they’ve got none
We’ve got the money and they’ve got none
