Lyrics

I got no food on my table. No sirloin steak of which I’m ‘specially fond. And even though I’m ready, willing, and I’m able, got no lover waking with me come the dawn. And my house is in distress, I’m feeling quite depressed, no self-respecting dandelion wants to grow upon my lawn. That’s what happens, that’s what happens, that’s what happens when the money’s gone. See that car, out in my driveway? Could not turn over if its name was apple. Though I kick its tires, and I coax it, threaten to turn it into scrap’l. Can’t beat it to submission, cause it needs a new transmission. and my bank account is severely overdrawn. That’s what happens, that’s what happens, that’s what happens when the money’s gone. Nobdy knows you when you’re down and out, but I never was no big spender. You could take all the martinis I’ve ever drunk fit ‘em into one little blender. Got a hole in my hat, and one in my shoe, and a whole lotta holes in between. My friends don’t mind, they treat me kind cause they know what what it means Got a dog name of Rover. Yeah, that really is his name. Refuses to come over. Tells me I’m to blame. Says he needs more doggie biscuits or he’ll refuse to bark even if some dirty rotten scoundrel tries to jump me in the dark. That’s what happens, and when it happens, you’ve just got to carry on. ‘Cause that’s what happens when the money’s gone.
