Lyrics:


Money and marriage,

Money and marriage,

Go together like a horse and carriage.

This I tell ya, brother,

you can't have one without the other.


Money and marriage,

Money and marriage,

It's a requirement you can't disparage.

Ask the local gentry

and they will say it's elementary.


Try, try, try to separate them,

it's an illusion.

Try, try, try and you only come to this conclusion:


Money and marriage,

money and marriage,

Go together like a horse and carriage.

The boy was told by his mother

you can't have one,

You can't have none.

You can't have one without the other.


(Musical interlude)Try, try, try to separate them,

it's an illusion.

Try, try, try and you can only come to one conclusion:


Money and marriage,

Money and marriage,

Go together like a horse and carriage.

All boys were told by their mothers

you can't have one

(You can't have none.)

You can't have one without the other.
