If I Don't Get Some Money 1923

James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 27 Aug 2004

Jones was in a pickle without doubt;
Jonesy turned his pockets inside out,
and not a cent was there,
he said: "Ain't it fair?
at my house at twenty six
the broker's waiting there!"

And if I don't get some money,
What'll I What'll I
What'll I What'll I do?
Yes, if I don't get some money
I think we'll have a storm, don't you?
Oh, Lordy Songs say Keep a smiling,
soon the sun will shine for you.
But if the sun don't soon start shining,
What'll I What'll I
What'll I What'll I do?

And if I don't get some money,
What'll I What'll I
What'll I What'll I do?
Yes, if I don't get some money
I think we'll have a storm, don't you?
Oh, Lordy Songs say Keep a smiling,
soon the sun will shine for you.
But if the sun don't soon start shining,
What'll I What'll I
What'll I What'll I do?

To make a book Brown went to Epsom Downs;
in his satchel Brown had three half crowns,
he laid one horse just one
then he had some fun,
and he said: "When the horse rolled in
at twenty six to one"

And if I don't get some money,
What'll I What'll I
What'll I What'll I do?
Yes, if I don't get some money
I think we'll have a storm, don't you?
Oh, Lordy Songs say Keep a smiling,
soon the sun will shine for you.
But if the sun don't soon start shining,
What'll I What'll I
What'll I What'll I do?

And if I don't get some money,
What'll I What'll I
What'll I What'll I do?
Yes, if I don't get some money
I think we'll have a storm, don't you?
Oh, Lordy Songs say Keep a smiling,
soon the sun will shine for you.
But if the sun don't soon start shining,
What'll I What'll I
What'll I What'll I do?

Jaggs one morn for breakfast had cocaine;
talking to an old gent in the train;
he said: "Though odd it sounds
I'm all out of bounds,
for in the bank I've only got
two hundred million pounds."

And if I don't get some money,
What'll I What'll I
What'll I What'll I do?
Yes, if I don't get some money
I think we'll have a storm, don't you?
Oh, Lordy Songs say Keep a smiling,
soon the sun will shine for you.
But if the sun don't soon start shining,
What'll I What'll I
What'll I What'll I do?

And if I don't get some money,
What'll I What'll I
What'll I What'll I do?
Yes, if I don't get some money
I think we'll have a storm, don't you?
Oh, Lordy Songs say Keep a smiling,
soon the sun will shine for you.
But if the sun don't soon start shining,
What'll I What'll I
What'll I What'll I do?
