It's a Pity What Money Can Do

It's a Pity What Money Can Do - Marty Robbins (马丁·罗宾逊)

I was a poor boy a poor girl was she

I loved her true and I thought she loved me

But I couldn't offer her anything new

It's a pity what money can do

She met with a stranger more wealthy than I

What I had promised her he said he'd buy

She gave him kisses then left me so blue

It's a pity what money can do

A man without money is well off it seems

He can't spend fortunes on poor worthless schemes

But a rich man will buy dreams that never come true

It's a pity what money can do

Now he has my sweetheart I'm all alone

He'll be as lonesome when his fortune's gone

She'll spend all his silver then find someone new

It's a pity what money can do
