Sittin' in the sun counting my money Fanned by my summer-breeze Sweeter than the honey is counting my money Those greenbacks on the trees Comes the summer shower , drops of rain falling Sweeter than the Christmas chimes And hearing those jingles upon the roof shingles Like pennies, nickels and dimes Though it's known that what I own Is not a large amount Fields of gold that I behold Are in my bank-account Yeah , sitting in the sun Counting my money Happy as I can be And to top it all when shadows fall I look to heaven and I see There's a silver dollar In the sky shining down on me Yeah , sittin' in the sun Counting my money Happy as I can be And to top it all when shadows fall I look to heaven and I see There's a silver dollar In the sky shining down on me
