IF YOU'VE GOT THE MONEY (I'VE GOT THE TIME)
Singer: Lefty Frizzell
Writers: Lefty Frizzell & Jim Beck

INTRO: If you've got the money, honey, I've got the time.

If you've got the money, honey, I've got the time
We'll go honky tonkin' and we're gonna have a time
We'll make all the night spots, dance to the music, fine
If you've got the money, honey, I've got the time.

Well, ain't no use to tarry, so let's start out tonight
We'll spread joy, boy-oh-boy, and we'll spread it right
We'll have more fun, baby, all the way down the line
If you've got the money, honey, I've got the time.

[BU] We'll make all the night spots, dance to the music, fine
[BU] If you've got the money, honey, I've got the time.

If you've got the money, honey, I've got the time
We'll go honky tonkin' and we're gonna have a time
Bring along your Cadillac, leave my old wreck behind
If you've got the money, honey, I've got the time.

Well, we'll go honky tonkin', make ev'ry club in town
Well go to the park where its dark, we won't fool around
But, if you run short of money, honey, I'll run short of time
'Cause you with no more money, honey, I've no more time.

Note. [BU] = Backup Singers.

Searching all over for these - not on any recordings I run across, or easily found on the net. Not quite up to purchasing the 10 CD Hank Williams Sr. anthology (if it's even on there), I thought I would check here. In Aug, 98 Francis Hahn requested these here and Roger Himler provided two verses. Thank you, Roger. Does anyone have these on the tip of their tongue? or in their collection? By Hank Sr. or anyone else? Thanks kindly, I have the music (sans lyrics), but have to play and sing it for a show in two weeks and would like to know if there are more lyrics than Roger came up with.

Thank you, masato. That's the one. I had a suspicion that it was not Hank Sr. and was beginning to look at other likely candidates. Glad to have that site to refer to. Hope I can return the favor at some point in the future!
