(Nancy Nicolson)
Chorus:
You can waste ma money, waste ma booze
Those are things that I can choose to lose
Waste ma money, waste ma booze
But don't waste ma time
For I can make more money, buy more booze
That's not what gives me the blues
For I can make more money, buy more booze
But I can't make more time
I earn the greenbacks, save them too
They hit your fingers, slip right through
For money never sticks to you
You never heard of banks
And then you go and ask a fave
Of Bill and Bob and Tom and Dave
And I pay back the cash they gave
And you receive the thanks
Yes darling, if you get the blues
A little booze is what to use
But just remember whose is whose
When you go back for more
And then if you are feelin dry
I'll tell you honey what to try
Go where the ocean meets the sky
And drink your way to shore
Yes, time is money, so they say
And if you take ma cash away
Ah need more time to make more pay
Time is money too
So if you've used up all your dough
Ah'll tell you darling where to go
It's black and blazin' down below
With fire and brimstone too
As sung by The McCalmans
