Lyrics
- 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, romance and dine
If you’ve got the money, Honey
I’ve got the time - 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 - 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 - Yes, we’ll go honky-tonkin’
And we’ll be pleasure bent
I’ll look like a million
But I won’t have a cent
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
