John Bernard Poet Free verse

Money This Money That

Keep hold of your money for times that are lean
Keep hold of your money from people who are mean
Keep hold of your money so you can get by

Money this money that
Money for that Christmas wrap
Money makes a merry Christmas for some

If I had the money I would feed all who I could
If I had enough money I would do what I should
Pay all my bills and help people out

Money from my bank account has dwindled away slow
Money from my bank account took us to the show
Money from my bank account keeps us alive

I have worked for my money and paid my own way
I have worked for my money to pay where I stay
I have worked for my money and tried to save

With money we gamble and play games of chance
The money can leave through a hole in your pants
I would gamble my money but my kids do come first

I am a slave for money though it does enslave me
I am a slave for money though I try to break free
You are enslaved by money can you not see

We all need money in this day and age
Why does this money cause so much rage
Without enough money we cannot survive
