Bert Williams <br /><br />"I'll Lend You Anything" <br /><br />Columbia A915 <br /><br />Lyrics by Jean C. Havez <br /><br />Music by Harry Von Tilzer<br /><br />When the wine goes in<br />The truth comes out<br />And Simpson was that way<br />If you'd only stand and listen while he<br />Told you all his troubles<br />He would never let you buy all day<br />He'd stand and spend<br />And buy and lend<br />Till he got good and gay<br />You never could imagine what his trouble was about<br />Until he grabbed you by the tonhole to say<br /><br />I'll lend you my horse<br />I'll lend you my hay<br />I'll lend you anything i've got<br />Take it away<br />I'll lend you five<br />I'll lend you ten<br />And if you want some more<br />Be sure and come around again<br />I'll lend you my hat<br />I'll lend you my flat<br />My brand new overcoat of fur<br />'ll lend you everything i've got<br />Except my wife<br />And i'll make you a present of her<br /><br />It never rains but what it pours<br />As Simpson seems to know<br />He went home one afternoon<br />And found his wife had asked her relatives<br />To come and spend a year or so<br />And he ofcourse<br />Slept with the horse<br />And yelled out hiphooray<br />So long as he was able<br />He prefered to use the stable<br />When the neighbors came around<br />You'd hear him say<br /><br />I'll lend you my horse<br />I'll lend you my hay<br />I'll lend you anything i've got<br />Take it away<br />I'll lend you five<br />I'll lend you ten<br />And if you want some more<br />Be sure and come around again<br />I'll lend you my hat<br />I'll lend you my flat<br />My brand new overcoat of fur<br />'ll lend you everything i've got<br />Except my wife<br />And i'll make you a present of her<br />
