If You're So Smart How Come You Ain't Rich lyrics by Louis Jordan
How Come U aint RichAs by Louie Jorden
You Braggin bout all the things you can do, every time you make a pitch
If your so smart, how come you aint rich
You claim to have picked every horse that has won,
cause you know just which is which
If your so smart, how come you aint rich
Henry built a ford and made his pile,
Woolworth used his 5 and 10
Rockefellers wealth came from standing oil,
and watermen�s came from his pen
You claim it all came from consultin you, isn�t that a brand new switch
If your so smart, how come you aint rich
Middle sax
Middle 8
Mention work and you go beserk, cause you hate to do a stitch
If your so smart, now, how come you aint rich
You out for the ride on the road to fame, yet you wind up in a ditch
If your so smart, tell me, how come you aint rich
Hershey started with a chocolate bar, Wrigley with a stick of gum
Planters took his peanuts and travelled far,
Now tell me what you doin chum
I been hearin bout all your big ideas, since you started whats the hitch
You aint never made ten dollars yet,
Still you say you can balance the national debt
If your so smart, how come you aint rich
