letra de money isn't everything - richard rodgers and oscar hammerstein ii

Loading...

[millie]
money isn’t everything
what can money buy?

[other four girls]
an automobile so you won’t get wet
champagne so you won’t get dry

[hazel]
money isn’t everything
what have rich folks got?

[other four girls]
a florida home so you won’t get cold

[jennie]
a yacht so you won’t get hot

[dot]
an orchid or two
so you won’t feel blue
if you have to go out at night

[addie]
and maybe a jar of caviar
so your appetite won’t be light
[jennie]
oil tycoon and cattle king
radio troubadour
belittle the fun that their fortunes bring
and tell you that they are sure
money isn’t everything

[all five girls]
money isn’t everything

[jennie]
money isn’t everything
unless you’re very poor!

[millie]
can money make you honest?
can it teach you right from wrong?

[addie]
can money keep you healthy?
can it make your muscles strong?

[hazel]
can money make your eyes red
the way they get from sewing?
[dot]
can money make your back get sore
the way it gets from mowing?

[millie and hazel]
can money make your hands get rough
as washing dishes does?

[addie and dot]
can money make you smell the way
that cooking fishes does?

[jennie]
it buys you gems and fancy clothes
and juicy steaks to carve

[other four girls]
but it cannot build your character
or teach you how to starve!

[all five girls]
money isn’t everything

[millie]
if you’re rich, you pay
elizabeth arden to do your face
the night you attend a play
[hazel]
feeling like a bloom of spring
down the aisle you’ll float
a tiffany ring, and a cartier string
of pearls to adorn your throat

[addie]
your carnegie dress
will be more or less
of a handkerchief ’round your hip

[dot]
sewed onto you, so
that your slip won’t show

[all five girls]
and whatever you show won’t slip!

[jennie]
to your creamy shoulders cling
ermines white as snow
then on to cafes where they sway and swing
you go with your wealthy beau

[all five girls]
there you’ll hear a crooner sing
“money isn’t everything!”
money isn’t everything
as long as you have dough!

- richard rodgers and oscar hammerstein ii
