You Can't Take It With You When You Go

I got a friend who's a workaholic he never knows when to quit
Well me i knock off early every chance i get
He's got an i.r.a. For a rainy day but i wonder if he knows
You can't take it with you when you go

While i'm out somewhere fishing you can bet he's working hard
My little boat's in the water his big boat sits in the yard
And while i'm making time with that gal of mine
His love life's on hold you can't take it with you when you go

You can't take it with you when you go
You better take some time to live and love before you get too old
All the treasures in this world don't mean a thing when they lay me low
Cause you can't take it with you when you go

Now hard work it's a virtue and there's nothing wrong with that
I ain't afraid to pull my weight but i ain't gonna break my back
I ain't worried about my bank account just let the good times roll
You can't take it with you when you go
