Old Man Luedecke - Baby, We’d Be Rich lyrics
rate meSinging for my supper
So I eat mr. Noodles
Watching all the cats walk
along the windowsill
With our mattress on the floor
And our records in the cartons
Dreaming of the country
Running from the bills
If Reading books was money
if spinning records was investing
If drinking was consulting
Baby, we’d be rich
Going on a picnic
Rolling in the grass now
The age of miracle and wonder
Or just trying to get our kicks
I would spend my last 10 dollars
Buy us both Tequila’s
Leave the pack up and waiting
No minutes on my phone
If Reading books was money
if spinning records was investing
If drinking was consulting
Baby, we’d be rich
If Dreaming made us money
If singing was investing
if smoking it was saving
Baby, we’d be rich
Gettin’ Higher,
Gettin’ Higher,
Gettin’ Higher and higher and higher
Moving to the country
Planting us a garden
I’m cooking up with beans
Thinking bout some kids
I’ve been thinking lately
It’s just you and me baby
Even if we’re dancing
On the margins of the skids
If Reading books was money
if spinning records was investing
If drinking was consulting
baby, we’d be rich
You’ve been reading books
I’ve been spinning records
We’ve been drinking all night
Baby, we’re rich!
