You gotta have money in the bank, Frank,
You gotta have something to start.
When you got money in the bank, Frank,
I'll give you my heart.

Sorry, shot my bolt.

Shoh slaynt,

Bobby Bob

GOTTA HAVE SOMETHING IN THE BANK, FRANK
(Hilliard / Garson)
Frankie Vaughan & The Kaye Sisters - 1957
Also recorded by: Steve Allen; Bob Jaxon.

KAYE SISTERS:
What do you say, Frankie?
Do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do

FRANKIE:
I say baby, I love you
But every time I say I do
You come back with words so true
You gotta have something in the bank Frank

KAYE SISTERS:
Gotta have something in the bank Frank
You gotta have something to start
When you have something in the bank Frank
I'll give you my heart

FRANKIE:
Every time we park the car
Underneath the loving star
You said all my dreams are ???
Well you gotta have something in the bank Frank

KAYE SISTERS:
Gotta have something in the bank Frank
You gotta have something to start
When you have something in the bank Frank
I'll give you my heart

Hey there, Frankie
You've gotta pay the rent
No, no, Frankie
We can't live in a tent

KAYE SISTERS:
We need a stove to cook the food
And a big refrigerator
They'll come from the factory
And we'll make them payments later

FRANKIE:
Last night you called me on the phone
And told me with a heart of stone
We can't live on love alone
You gotta have something in the bank Frank

KAYE SISTERS:
You gotta have something in the bank Frank
You gotta have something to start
When you have something in the bank Frank
I'll give you my heart

(INSTRUMENTAL)

Hey there, Frankie
You've gotta pay the rent
No, no, Frankie, we can't live in a tent

KAYE SISTERS:
We need a house
We need a car
And lots of gadgets on it
You need lots of steaks and chops
And the baby needs a bonnet

FRANKIE:
But I said baby, I love you
But every time I say I do
You come back with words so true
You gotta have something in the bank Frank

KAYE SISTERS:
Gotta have something in the bank Frank
You gotta have something to start
When you have something in the bank Frank
I'll give you my heart

FRANKIE:
I love you baby

Kay Sisters:
You gotta have something in the bank Frank

FRANKIE:
I need you baby

KAYE SISTERS:
You gotta have something in the bank Frank
