I Use to Have Money One Time — текст песни (Jimmy Buffett)

I use to have money one time

By: jimmy buffett, michael utley

1983

For harrison and hunter

I had cadillacs in my future

Debutantes in my past

I made a deal with the devil for a whole lotta money

Thinkin it would last and last

But a fool and his money are bound to part

And what goes up must come down

Take my advice dont trust the roll of the dice

Keep your feet on solid ground



Chorus:

I used to have money one time

Life of adventure and crime

I used to have money one time

Lots of women and wine

But whos gonna tell a fool? whos gonna tell a fool?

Whos gonna tell a fool? that he aint cool (he aint cool!)



Now thems were hard times back in the eighties boy

People barely had enough to get by

Oh not me foot loose and fancy free

There was nothin to myself Id deny

But fellas listen to my story now

Though you have heard this tale before

Take care of your needs and watch out for you greeds

Or that wolf will be at your door



Chorus:

I used to have money one time

Life of adventure and crime

I used to have money one time

Now I aint got a dime

But whos gonna be the fool? whos gonna be the fool?

Whos gonna be the fool? still aint cool (it aint cool)



Whos gonna tell a fool? whos gonna tell a fool?

Whos gonna tell a fool? still aint cool (it aint cool)



(jimmy used to have money one time)

(bubba used to have money one time)

(jimmy used to have money one time)

(bubba used to have money one time)

(jimmy used to have money one time)

(bubba used to have money one time)
