Well, money's gettin' cheaper, prices gettin' steeper 
Found myself a woman but I just couldn't keep her 
Times gettin' tougher than tough 
Things gettin' rougher than rough 
I make a lot of money, I just keep spendin' the stuff 
Well, pork chops on the market, ask the butcher for a pound 
Couldn't buy a pork chop when I laid my money down 
Times gettin' tougher than tough 
Things gettin' rougher than rough 
I make a lot of money, just keep spendin' the stuff 
Well, politicians are tellin' folks to cut out on their meat 
Why don't they cut the price an' let the people eat? 
Times gettin' tougher than tough 
Things gettin' rougher than rough 
I make a lot of money, I just keep spendin' the stuff 
Well, I can't afford to live, I guess I'll have to try 
Undertaker's got a union, and it costs to much to die 
Times gettin' tougher than tough 
Things gettin' rougher than rough 
I make a lot of money, I just keep spendin' the stuff
