Lyrics for Easy Money
Your admirers on the street Got to hoot and stamp their feet In the heat from your physique As you twinkle by mocassin sneakers And I thought my heart would break When you doubled up the stake With your fingers all a shake You could never tell a winner from a snake Easy Money With your figure and your face Strutting out at every race Throw a glass around the place Show the colour of your crimson suspenders We could take the money home Sit around the family throne My old dog could chew his bone For two weeks we could appease the Almighty Easy Money Your admirers in the street Got to hoot and stamp their feet In the heat from your physique As you twinkle by in moccasin sneakers Got no truck with the la-di-da Keep my bread in an old fruit jar Drive you out in a motor-car Getting fat on your lucky star Just making easy money
