Intro: C. C Singin' for my supper, so we're eating Mr. Noodles G C Watchin' other cats walk along the window sill. C With our mattress on the floor and our records in the cartons, G C Dreamin' of the country, running from the bills. Chorus 1: F C F C If reading books was money, spinning records was investing F C G C If drinking was consulting, baby we'd be rich Goin' on a picnic, rollin' in the grass now The age of miracle and wonder, we're just trying to get our kicks I would spend my last ten dollars, buy us both tequilas, Leave the power company waiting, no minutes on my phone Chorus 1,then: If dreaming made us money, if singing was investing, If smoking it was saving, baby we'd be rich Bridge: C F I'm gettin higher, I'm getting higher, G C I'm getting higher and higher and higher Movin' to the country, plantin' us a garden, I'm cooking up the beans, was thinkin' bout some kids I been thinkin' lately, it's just you and me baby, even if we're dancin, on the margins of the skids Chorus 1, then: You been reading books, I've been spinning records, We've been drinking all night...baby, we are rich!
