Mr. Penny Pincher met Ms. Money Honey
Att’a casino club filled with smokin’ bunnies.
He thought she look’d best
In a bar filled with breasts
And said, “That’s where she’ll store all’a my money.”
Took’er a’side in’na room filled with hide
Gobbled her mouth and grabb’d her backside.
Wined her and dined her, rubies and pearls
He’d drank the punch and bet on the girl.
Weather’d her storms ‘n’ follow’d her tide.
He thought she was divine, a real be-yoot.
In a world unfair, that proved only moot.
He’d put five on 5 thousand
Lost al’la his love ‘rousin.
When she ran off, ‘n’ snake’d all’a his loot.
So buyer beware before you affair,
Remember to stare at all’a the care.
Life is a rush, and love is a gamble.
Live your life large and try not to ramble.
Pounds, pence, dollars ‘n’ sense takes lifetimes to bear.
