Since I became so wealthy
all my friends declare
dey never saw such style
or splendor anywhere,
I have pajamas for ma horse
to sleep with ease,
no common hay for him each day
but lamb and peas.
I've fifty kinds of courses yes,
for ev'ry meal,
Ma carpets and ma rugs
am of de finest seal,
Dere's "Welcome" on ma mat
to ev'ry one dat's nigh,
Just call in as you're passin' by.

Ev'rybody have a good old time,
you have it now at my expense,
ev'rybody get right up in line,
to see you happy looks immense,
Dere's father, mother,
brother and sister Lou,
are spending so much money
why they're happy too,
the compliments I paid to them
I'll pay to you,
ev'rybody have a good old time.

Ev'rybody have a good old time,
you have it now at my expense,
ev'rybody get right up in line,
to see you happy looks immense,
Dere's father, mother,
brother and sister Lou,
are spending so much money
why they're happy too,
the compliments I paid to them
I'll pay to you,
ev'rybody have a good old time.

You may talk about Rock'fellers
or your Vanderbilts,
Ma money's stack'd so high
I have to walk on stilts,
At night when I retire
why I have a dread,
in case that it may tumble
while I lie in bed.
I have a blanket made
of fifty dollar notes,
I even use ten dollar bills
to line my coats,
I light my pipe with twenties
when ma fives are shy,
I've millions till the day I die.

Ev'rybody have a good old time,
you have it now at my expense,
ev'rybody get right up in line,
to see you happy looks immense,
Dere's father, mother,
brother and sister Lou,
are spending so much money
why they're happy too,
the compliments I paid to them
I'll pay to you,
ev'rybody have a good old time.

Ev'rybody have a good old time,
you have it now at my expense,
ev'rybody get right up in line,
to see you happy looks immense,
Dere's father, mother,
brother and sister Lou,
are spending so much money
why they're happy too,
the compliments I paid to them
I'll pay to you,
ev'rybody have a good old time.
