Lyrics John Conlee – I Had The Time And Money Too

Text:

Forgive me if I seem too forward
But we have met somewhere before
As I recall you were the toast of Baltimore

And I had just come from Dallas

And my first well had just come in
And don’t tell me that you don’t remember

You knew me when
I had the time, I had the money too, yes I did
Honey, I even had a girl like you
And I had the time and money too

As you might guess by my appearance
I’ve seen some chances since that day
Most of the things the good Lord gave me, he took away

That’s not to say I am complaining
I still remember how to win
And there’s still a chance the price crude will rise again

I had the time, I had the money too, yes I did
Honey, I even had a girl like you
And I had the time and money too

Now, I’m not even gonna ask you
Why you’re in a place like this
Why don’t we spring for a bottle and just reminisce

I had the time, I had the money too, yes I did
Honey, I even had a girl like you
I had the time, I had the money too, yes I did
Honey, I even had a girl like you
