The Money Tree

Pull up an easy chair
And sit yourself
Down and lean back

While we tell ya about
The folks who live in
The town of Greenback

They never have to work
On their hands and knees
'Cause they live in a place where
Money grows on trees

Oh, the money tree, the money tree
It's a beautiful sight to see
Why couldn't it
Happen to you and me

There isn't a person in town
Who isn't a regal spender
And they never wear a frown
For lack of that legal tender

They're all ten years ahead
On their income tax
And the whole town's
Driving next year's Cadillacs

Oh, the money tree, the money tree
It's a beautiful sight to see
Why couldn't it
Happen to you and me

Well it grows fresh new bills
That snap and crack
As fast as you pick 'em it grows 'em back

Every day there's a bumper crop
With a million dollar
Bill way up on top
Now there is just one way
To visit the town of Greenback

Pull up an easy chair
And sit yourself
Down and lean back

Then close your eyes
And suddenly you will see
That beautiful, lovely, wonderful
Money tree

Oh, the money tree, the money tree
It's a beautiful sight to see
Why couldn't it
Happen to you and me

Why couldn't it
Happen to you and me
