Come On Everybody
(Tune: Buffalo Gals, Won't You Come Out Tonight)

Come on everybody,
Won't you save your money?
Won't you save your money?
Won't you save your money?
Come on everybody,
Won't you save your money,
And buy something good some day?

Come on everybody,
Won't you spend your money?
Won't you spend your money?
Won't you spend your money?
Come on everybody,
Won't you spend your money,
And buy something small today?

Look at (name of student,)
With a hole in your pocket,
A hole in your pocket,
A hole in your pocket,
Look at (name of student,)
With a hole in your pocket,
You'll spend your money today!
