Go to Lord Gyric of Otershaghe's Bawdy Song Book Lord Gyric of Otershaghe's Bawdy Song Book
My God how the Money Rolls In
by   tune:

Note: This song comes from the Roll Me Over songbook. I got a great load from this book. I will now reference this as RMO. I'll place it in the bibliography. Oh, and the tune is to My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean.

My Father makes book on the corner,
My Mother makes second hand gin
My sister makes love for a tuppence
My God how the money rolls in!

Chorus:
Rolls in, rolls in,
My God, how the money rolls in, rolls in,
Rolls in, rolls in
My God, how the money rolls in.

My Brother's a poor missionary
He saves fallen women from sin
He'll save you a blonde for a shilling
My God, how the money rolls in.

My Uncle's an artist and painter;
He turns out a beautiful fin
He sells them ten cents on the dollar
My God, how the money rolls in.

My Aunt is a boarding-house keeper,
She takes little working girls in
They put a red light in the window
My God, how the money rolls in.

My Grandma sells cheap prophylactics
She punctures the heads with a pin
For Grandpa gets rich from abortions
My God, how the money rolls in.
