Money To Burn

(album: Red Rubber Ball - 1966)

When I was a young boy
Innocent was I
Started into dating girls
Always wondered why

They hung on me
'Cause I had money to burn
But I just didn't see
No I just didn't see

Got a reputation
Country and the town
I was known as playboy kid
Spending all around

They hung on me
'Cause I had money to burn
But I just didn't see
No I just didn't see

You say it's me you're needing honey
But I know better now
All the time you want my money
But that I can't allow

Tired of all my spending
I can't find a home
Gotta find a love for what I am
Not what I own

Don't hang on me
'Cause I had money to burn
But I just didn't see
No I just didn't see

They hung on me
'Cause I had money to burn
But I just didn't see
No I just didn't see

You say it's me you're needing honey
But I know better now
All the time you want my money
But that I can't allow

Tired of all my spending
I can't find a home
Gotta find a love for what I am
Not what I own

Don't hang on me
'Cause I had money to burn
But I just didn't see
No I just didn't see
