The Who - Silas Stingy lyrics

By the name of Silas Stingy

He carried all his money in a little black box

Which was heavy as a rock

With a big padlock

All the little kids would shout

When Silas was about

[Chorus:]

Money, money, money bags

Money, money, money bags

There goes mingy Stingy

There goes mingy Stingy

Money, money, money bags

Money, money, money bags

There goes mingy Stingy

There goes mingy Stingy

Silas didn't eat, which was just as well

He would starve himself for a penny

He wore old clothes and he never washed

'Cause soap cost a lotThe Who - Silas Stingy - http://motolyrics.com/the-who/silas-stingy-lyrics.html

And the dirt kept him hot

All the little kids would shout

When Silas was about

[chorus]

In the back of his head

Was a voice that said

"Someone will steal it all

You'll be lying in the gutter with an empty box

The thieves will be having a ball"

[chorus]

He bought a safe to put the box in

And a house to put the safe in

And a watchdog on a chain to make quite sure

And his face was very funny

When he counted up his money

And he realized he hadn't any more

[chorus]
