Didn't have the money round to buy a Morry Thou
F C G
Been around and seen a lot to shake me anyhow
G
Begged and borrowed sometimes I admit I even stole
F C G
But the worst crime that I ever did was playing rock'n'roll
D F G
But the money's no good, just get a grip on yourself
D F G
But the money's no good, just get a grip on yourself
G
Suffering convictions on a two way stretch inside
F C G
The air in here in pretty thin, I think I'll go outside
G
Committed for insanity and crimes against the soul
F C G
The worst crime that I ever did was play some rock'n'roll
D F G
But the money's no good, just get a grip on yourself

Just strap on your guitar and we'll play some rock and roll

But the money's no good, just get a grip on yourself
