How to Lose Your Money and Your Friend

 

By Elton Camp

 

 

If you have your money and your friend

You’ll lose them both if you dare to lend

 

“I hate to ask, but you know you can trust me.”

Your money you will nevermore come to see

 

Relatives are going to act exactly the same way

They will feel free to borrow, but never repay

 

I loaned money a first, second and third time

And afterwards never again saw a single dime

 

The only benefit was I never saw them anymore

From there on out, they were careful to ignore

 

So maybe it was actually money well spent

I lost a small amount and away the pest went

 

But I learned by experience the right way to go

Whenever somebody asks, simply tell him, “No”
