First verse not listed here, but it started the song when I heard it and was followed by the verses posted above or very close variants ... these words seem quite different suggesting a corporate approach to family money making, yet along the same theme and the following verses are the same as above ... I heard this verse in an Australian context and it is definitely at least half a century old given the sources that I have seen it printed in mid century university song anthologies, but possibly closer to the 1920s/1930s ...


We've shares in the very best companies
In tobacco and tramways and tin
We've brothels in Rio de Janeiro
My God how the money rolls in!
