When the money's gone
Will you be my friend
Float a small row boat
Till the ship comes in
When the winter nights
Chills us to the soul
Will you feed the fire
Spin the straw to gold
When the money's gone

When the money's gone
Will you get cold feet
Will you still be there
If the ends don't meet
If we're in the red
Just forget the green
Take a bus with me
No more limousines
When the money's gone
Will you still love me

Oh what a fine life
I give to you
All you ever want
Will you still be there
Will you pull me through
When the cash don't come
And if you're mine
Will you still love me
Whenever we fall
When the money's gone

When the money's gone
No more caviar
Will you eat fast food
In a beat up car
Live life modestly
Lost in lotto dreams
Will you find your way
Through it all with me
Through it all with me

Oh what a fine life
I give to you
All it ever was
Will you still be there
Will you pull me through
When the cash don't come
Will you still love me
Whenever we fall

And a mile off the shore
Flies a bird who'll land no more
So you always will pull me forever more
