Now this is what i’m gonna do with my money
Gonna fill the kiddies up with candy, gonna buy them toys and everything
Gonna spend my money like a sailor, ‚cause my ship came in
Gonna fill the birdies up with bird seeds gonna really make em wanna sing

Gonna spend my money like a sailor, ‚cause my ship came in
