Life: These are Charlie Parker CDs. (week 10,67/365,jreyes)

I was going through my CD case, yes I still have CDs and I ran into these old Charlie Parker CDs I bought about 4 years ago. I fell in love with his sound again. I have just been listening to his stuff all night. One of his best songs is "Romance without Finance" Here are the lyrics.

Romance without finance is a nuisance
Baby, you know I need me some gold
Romance without finance just don't make sense
Mama, mama, please give up that gold
You so great and you so fine
You ain't got no money you can't be mine
It ain't no joke to be stone broke
Baby, you know I'd lie when I say
Romance without finance is a nuisance
Please please baby give me some gold

Romance without finance is a nuisance
Oh baby, I must have me some gold
Romance without finance just don't make sense
Oh baby, mama, mama, give up that gold
You so great and you so fine
You ain't got no money you can't be mine
It ain't no joke to be stone broke
Baby, you know I'd lie when I say
Romance without finance is a nuisance
