Money, marbles and chalk sweetheart
But I still feel like I'm poor
'Cause my money won't spend and my marbles won't roll
And my chalk it don't ride anymore.

Now there's an old saying that's been all around
I heard it before I could walk
How some's got health and some's got wealth
Others money, marbles and chalk.

Money, marbles and chalk sweetheart
But I still feel like I'm poor
'Cause my money won't spend and my marbles won't roll
And my chalk it don't ride anymore.

While you were near me I was happy and gay
Your presence made me feel so proud
But now that you left me it's a lonely old world
And I feel I'm alone in a crowd.

Money, marbles and chalk sweetheart
But I still feel like I'm poor
'Cause my money won't spend and my marbles won't roll
And my chalk it don't ride anymore.

Now the money and marbles and chalk
Are just fine for a miser who loves only gold
But just give me a chance to say our romance
'Cause I love you with all of my soul.

Money, marbles and chalk sweetheart
But I still feel like I'm poor
'Cause my money won't spend and my marbles won't roll
And my chalk it don't ride anymore.

(Now everybody) money, marbles and chalk sweetheart
But I still feel like I'm poor
'Cause my money won't spend and my marbles won't roll
And my chalk it don't ride anymore...
This song is from the album "Dean's List [Columbia]" and "American Originals [Columbia]".
