Folk & Traditional Song Lyrics www.traditionalmusic.co.uk Money, Marbles and Chalk 
Money, Marbles and Chalk (Pop Eckler) 
There's an old saying that's been all around I heard before I could walk How some's got wealth and some's got health Others money, marbles and chalk 
CHORUS I've got money, marbles and chalk sweetheart But I still feel like I am poor For my money won't spend and my marbles won't roll And my chalk it won't write anymore 
While you were here I was happy and gay Your presence made me for another one day But you left me for another one day Now I feel so alone in a crowd 

* Refrain 

Money, marbles and chalk is alright For a miser who loves only gold But give me a chance to save our romance For I love you with all of my soul 

* Refrain 

I walk in the rain and I feel no pain, I'm lost and I'm lonely and blue. I can't sleep at night and nothing seems right And I worry a lot about you. 

* Refrain
