To Cut a Long Story Short |
I had a woman that loved me true |
To cut a long story short |
We got married on our honeymoon |
To cut a long story short |
Now we’re together I’m afraid no more |
To cut a long story short |
Like billions of other people we’re divorced |
To cut a long story short |
I don’t believe that you can possibly |
Give more than you get |
Unless you talk about taxation |
And the money that you care to bet |
When I’ve got a problem I wanna solve |
To cut a long story short |
I simply go out and have a game of golf |
To cut a long story short |
But I read a book that the book was great |
To cut a long story short |
It got a fine class of people like the chambermaid |
To cut a long story short |
I don’t see how you could possibly |
Take what you can get |
When to get what you take |
And man you really got to sweat |
I don’t believe that you can possibly |
Give more than you get |
Unless you talk about taxation |
And the money that you care to bet |
I’ve got a girlfriend her name is Jill |
To cut a long story short |
She doesn’t take chances |
So she takes the pill |
To cut a long story short |
I’m really positive that she is mine |
To cut a long story short |
Now I’m getting married for the second time |
To cut a long story short |
I don’t see how you could possibly |
Take what you can get |
When to get what you take |
And man you really got to sweat |
