Y'know life is a one way ticket
And there ain't no second time around
Y'know life is a one way ticket
And there ain't no second time around

You better get all you can out of life
Before you're six feet in the ground

When you get your big money
Better buy everything you could
When you get your big money
Better buy everything you could

When you're six by six in the dirt
All the money in the world won't do you no good

Some people believe in reincarnation
I swear I believe when you're dead you're done
Some people believe in reincarnation
I swear I believe when you're dead you're done

I've been from here to eternity
Tryin' to find my little place in the sun

[David Newman Saxophone Solo]
[Dr. John Piano Solo]

Oh, when you get you're big money baby
Buy, buy everything you can
Oh, when you get you're big money baby
Buy everything you can

Y'know you can't take it with you
When you're dead, there's no more to it

When you get ahold of your big money
Get your hands on everything you can get
When you get your hands on your big money
You better get your hand on everything you can get

Baby you just can't take it with you
I ain't ever seen an armored car in a funeral yeah!
