about

Whether my great grandmother Daisy Harned was left penniless by her father Charles is debated in the family. But folks said that when Daisy married this young man from Georgia, “each one thought the other had money.”

lyrics

I thought you had money, you thought I did too
We’d be together and well-to-do
But how lucky that we never knew
You love me, I’m mad about you

I thought you had a fancy house fit for a tsar
A brand new shiny motor car
A butler and a maid
To bring me ice-cold lemonade
And I wanted you to marry me
I hoped that you’d believe
I had money
But that wasn’t true

I thought you had money, you thought I did too
We’d be together and well-to-do
But how lucky that we never knew
You love me, I’m mad about you

You thought I was very debonaire
Most certainly a millionaire
I’d buy you a diamond ring
You’d be queen to my king
But I found out after our embrace
That you were just a pretty face
Without money
No revenue

Instead of Paris
We can go to the matinee
Who would have thought that
Life could be so gay
It doesn’t matter whatever we do
I’m happy as long as I’m with you

I thought you had money, you thought I did too
We’d be together and well-to-do
But how lucky that we never knew
You love me, I’m mad about you
