Lend me an ear
Fresh out of clover
Mortgage up to here
But don't pass the plate folks
Don't pass the cup
I figure whenever you're down and out
The only way is up
And I'll be up like a rose bud
High on the vine
Don't thumb your nose
But take a tip from mine
I'm a little bit short of the elbow room
But let me get me some
And look out world
Here I come
Yes, hey look me over
Lend me an ear
Fresh out of clover
Mortgage up to here
But don't pass the plate folks
Don't pass the cup
I figure whenever you're down and out
The only way is up
And I'll be up like a rose bud
High on the vine
Don't thumb your nose
But take a tip from mine
I'm a little bit short of the elbow room
But let me get me some
And look out - world
Here - I - come...
Hey look me over Lend me an ear Fresh out of clover Mortgage up to here But don't pass the plate folks Don't pass the cup I figure whenever you're down and out The only way is up And I'll be up like a rose bud High on the vine Don't thumb your nose But take a tip from mine I'm a little bit short of the elbow room But let me get me some And look out world Here I come Yes, hey look me over Lend me an ear Fresh out of clover Mortgage up to here But don't pass the plate folks Don't pass the cup I figure whenever you're down and out The only way is up And I'll be up like a rose bud High on the vine Don't thumb your nose But take a tip from mine I'm a little bit short of the elbow room But let me get me some And look out - world Here - I - come...
