the jeffrey lewis & peter stampfel band - money, marbles & chalk lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
there’s an old sayin’ that’s been all around
i heard it before i could walk
how some have their health and some have their wealth
others money, marbles and chalk

[chorus]
i got money, marbles and chalk, sweetheart
but i still feel like i am poor
’cause my money won’t fold and my marbles won’t roll
and my chalk won’t write anymore
[verse 2]
while you were near i was happy and g+y
your presence made me feel so proud
but you left me for another, one terrible day
now i feel all alone in a crowd

[chorus]
i got money, marbles and chalk, sweetheart
but i still feel like i am poor
’cause my money won’t fold and my marbles won’t roll
and my chalk won’t write anymore

[bridge]
money, marbles and chalk is alright
for misers who loves only gold
but give me a chance to save our romance
cos i love you with all of my soul

[verse 3]
one of these days my last dollar i’ll spend
on a pistol with one silver round
all my marbles i’ll use and this old chalk they’ll use
to trace my poor corpse on the ground

[chorus]
i have money, marbles and chalk, sweetheart
but all things must someday go bust
’cause my money got jacked and my marbles got cracked
and my chalk just like me is now dust
[outro]
money, marbles and chalk
