Verse:

Bill col -lec -tors gath -er 'Round and rath -er Haunt the cot -tage next door

Men the gro -cer and butch -er sent Men who call for the rent

But with -in a hap -py chap -py And his bride of on -ly a year

Seem to be so cheer -ful Here's an ear full Of the chat -ter you hear

 

Chorus:

Ev -'ry morn -ing Ev -'ry eve -ing Ain't we got fun

Not much mon -ey Oh but hon -ey Ain't we got fun

The rent's un -paid dear We have -n't a bus

But smiles were made dear For peo -ple like us

In the win -ter in the sum -mer Don't we have fun

Times are bum and get -ting bum -mer Still we have fun

There's noth -ing sur -er The rich get rich and the poor get chil -dren

In the mean -time In be -tween time Ain't we got fun.
