In the Red

Abbey Lincoln, Chips Bayen, Maxwell Lemuel Roach

No account, bank account
Can't raise a dime.
Can't pay the bills.
I got no time
No account bank account
That's got me flying though.
Sure makes a poor man's weight.
A hard row, tow....
They say to keep on smiling.
When trouble comes in twos.
Rich folks say to keep on smiling.
But poor folks pay the doos.
No account, bank account.
I'm broke and bent.
Know the lord provides.
The rent ain't heaven sent.
They say to keep on smiling when trouble comes in twos.
Rich folks say to keep on smiling.
But poor folks pay the doos.
No account, bank account.
I'm broke and bent.
Know the lord provides.
The rent ain't heaven sent.
On no account, bank account.
Will make you change your ways.
There won't be no peace of mind,
'Til I see better days.
