|
I'm fly and flash and my jive is sweet
|
Pressed in pleat right to my feet
|
But when it comes to cash
|
I'm incomplete
|
Datin' with no dough
|
|
|
I told my doll I'd take her on a date
|
On the condition that she'd have to wait
|
'Cause I've never owned a car in the state
|
I'll be datin' with no dough
|
|
|
The valets and the maitre d'
|
Roll out the red carpet for me
|
My looks are deceiving Lord
|
'Cause when the check comes I'll be gone
|
|
|
Guess I'm deadbeat but what a seller
|
If flash were cash I'd be a Rockefeller
|
As long as my game goes unknown
|
I'll be datin' with no dough
|
|
|
I took my baby uptown
|
To show her that I had some class
|
The drink tab I could not pay
|
You know I ended the date with her foot up my
|
Yes I'm a deadbeat but what a seller
|
If flash were cash I'd be a Rockefeller
|
As long as my game goes unknown
|
I'll be datin' with no dough
