If You've Got The Money I've Got The Time by Lefty Frizzell and Jim Beck "I was working in West Texas at a night club and I had a friend from Oklahoma to come visiting. He wanted to go somewhere and he said, 'Lefty, you want to go? and I said, 'Well if you got the money, I got the time!' and it dawned on me this would be a beautiful idea for a song." —Lefty Frizzell If You've Got The Money, 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 We'll make all the night spots Dance, drink beer and wine 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 the 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' Make every club in town We'll go to the park where it's dark We won't fool around But if you run short of money I'll run short of time 'Cause you with no more money, honey I've got no more time.
