Go out and spend your money friend 'tis soon you'll have to die <br />So what use in piling riches up for others to enjoy <br />And don't have some relation say on the day they lay you low <br />He forgot me he left me nought the bloody so and so. <br /> <br />Go out and spend your money friend and with it enjoy life <br />Because dead men they are quickly forgot even by their wife <br />And though she may be old and gray with your riches she can <br />Quite easily get married to a handsome virile man. <br /> <br />Don't leave too much to your daughter friend nor neither to your son <br />Because they too will forget you quick when your life course is run <br />But spend it on yourself my friend while you're still in your prime <br />Because you will be forever dead and short is a lifetime <br /> <br />Go out and spend your money friend and don't have people say <br />He was a miser all his life on the day you pass away <br />Because money it was made by man and meant to go around <br />And if you don't spend it someone else will when you are underground. <br /> <br />Go out and spend your money friend before it is too late <br />Because days and years slide fast away and time for no one wait <br />Because you will be forever dead and brief the human stay <br />And death quickly approaches with the dawning of each day.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/go-out-and-spend-your-money-friend/
