Fool and His Money |
| Well you broken before you start |
| A fool and his money compel to part |
| You broken before you start |
| Fool and his money compel to part |
| Squandering and fêteing, living nice |
| In fool’s paradise |
| When you money done |
| All company gone |
| So be wise, live nice (let thrift be your guide) |
| Mama yo, think twice (put something aside) |
| Never mind the things they will say 'bout you |
| Do the things that is best to do |
| Have a lot of fun but remember way Sparrow say |
| Keep some for a rainy day |
| If you’re rich they’ll bow at your feet |
| You’ll nver know it’s deceit |
| And thy’ll never do nothing wrong |
| But they pretending all along |
| Well people like me ain’t stand a chance |
| But they’ll give you tolerance |
| And you won’t detect |
| 'Til you’re in trouble up to you neck |
| Mama yo, live nice (let thrift be your guide) |
| Oh, think twice (put something aside) |
| Never mind the things they will say 'bout you |
| Do the things that you have to do |
| Have a lot of fun but remember way Sparrow say |
| Keep some for a rainy day |
| Wepsee mama! |
| In order for you to learn |
| You could take advice or go and get burn |
| Spend like a sailor and entertain |
| Tom, Dick, Harry, Mary, and Jane |
| Whisky by the grap for them to drink |
| And any time you think |
| All of you is one |
| Wait 'til your money done |
| I tell you be wise, live nice (let thrift be your guide) |
| Mama yo, think twice (put something aside) |
| Never mind the things they will say 'bout you |
| Do the things that is best to do |
| Have a lot of fun, go tell them what Sparrow say |
| Keep some for a rainy day |
| If you buy people company |
| Buy it with old talk, not with money |
| When you broke they will pass you straight |
| They always hurry, they always late |
| Because they can’t enjoy life at your expense |
| So no more tolerance |
| That’s the truth my friends |
| That’s the way a fool and his money ends |
| So be wise, live nice (let thrift be your guide) |
| Mama yo, think twice (put something aside) |
| Never mind the things they will say 'bout you |
| Do the things that is best to do |
| Have a lot of fun, go go tell them what Sparrow say |
| Keep some for a rainy day |
| (Let thrift be your guide) |
| (Put something aside) |
| (Let thrift be your guide) |
| (Put something aside) |
| (Let thrift be your guide) |
| (Put something aside) |
