Lefty Frizzell – If You’ve Got the Money (I’ve Got the Time) Lyrics

[Chorus]
If you’ve got the money I’ve got the time
We’ll go honky tonkin’ and we’ll have a time
We’ll make all the night spots dance drink beer and wine
If you’ve got the money honey I’ve got the time
[Verse 1]
There ain’t no use to tarry so let’s start out tonight
We’ll spread joy oh boy oh boy and we’ll spread it right
We’ll have more fun baby all way down the line
If you’ve got the money honey I’ve got the time
[Chorus]
If you’ve got the money I’ve got the time
We’ll go honky tonkin’ and we’ll have a time
Bring along your Cadillac leave my old wreck behind
If you’ve got the money honey I’ve got the time
[Verse 2]
Yes we’ll go honky tonkin’ make every club in town
We’ll go to the park where it’s dark we won’t fool around
But if you run short of money I’ll run short of time
Cause you with no more money honey I’ve no more time
[Chorus]
If you’ve got the money I’ve got the time
We’ll go honky tonkin’ and we’ll have a time
We’ll make all the night spots dance drink beer and wine
If you’ve got the money honey I’ve got the time
