The Fall - F-'Oldin' Money lyrics
[The Fall - F-'Oldin' Money lyrics]
I went to the bank just to get a little money
When he told me their requirements
I started feeling funny
He said, you ain't got a house
You ain't got a plot
I ain't got a window and I ain't got a job
But it takes a lotta blue
Backs to satisfy my honey
If I could get my hands
On some f-oldin' money
Well, I went to the social just
To get a little pension
I was sorely in distress
I was needing some attention
They said you don't get a copper
You don't get a dime
That's why I broke his jaw
That's why I'm doin' time
But it takes a lotta blue
Backs to satisfy my honey
If I could get my hands
On some f-oldin' money
And then I got a letter off
My lawyer in the city
He said you gotta come and see me boy
It really is a pity those savings you got in
The casino disappeared
And he went out the window real quick, honey
And I'll do it all again
But it may sound funny
If I could get my hands
On some f-oldin' money
If I could get my hands
On some f-oldin' money
Well, I went to my banker just
To raise a little money
He said, I'm glad to see ya
But I started feeling funny
He said, you ain't got a house
You ain't got a job
I ain't got a window and I ain't got a plot
It takes a lotta blue backs
To satisfy my honey
I could get my hands on some f-oldin' money
F-oldin' money f-oldin' money
F-oldin' money f-oldin' money
When he told me their requirements
I started feeling funny
He said, you ain't got a house
You ain't got a plot
I ain't got a window and I ain't got a job
But it takes a lotta blue
Backs to satisfy my honey
If I could get my hands
On some f-oldin' money
Well, I went to the social just
To get a little pension
I was sorely in distress
I was needing some attention
They said you don't get a copper
You don't get a dime
That's why I broke his jaw
That's why I'm doin' time
But it takes a lotta blue
Backs to satisfy my honey
If I could get my hands
On some f-oldin' money
And then I got a letter off
My lawyer in the city
He said you gotta come and see me boy
It really is a pity those savings you got in
The casino disappeared
And he went out the window real quick, honey
And I'll do it all again
But it may sound funny
If I could get my hands
On some f-oldin' money
If I could get my hands
On some f-oldin' money
Well, I went to my banker just
To raise a little money
He said, I'm glad to see ya
But I started feeling funny
He said, you ain't got a house
You ain't got a job
I ain't got a window and I ain't got a plot
It takes a lotta blue backs
To satisfy my honey
I could get my hands on some f-oldin' money
F-oldin' money f-oldin' money
F-oldin' money f-oldin' money
