My father needs money my uncle needs money my mother is thin as a reed
But me I'm sitting pretty
I've got all the money I need
My dearest friend Fritzy is out of his wits
He has four starving children to feed
But me I'm sitting pretty
I've got all the money I need
I know my little cousin Eric has his creditors hysterical
Also cousin Herman had to pawn his mother's ermine
And my sister and my brother took to hocking one another too
But I've got some talents which
Build up my balance so even my banker's agreed
That me I'm sitting pretty
I've got all the money I need
I know my little cousin Eric has his creditors hysterical
Also cousin Herman had to pawn his mother's ermine
And my sister and my brother took to hocking one another too
But I'm not a nincompoop
I've got an income you put in the bank to accrue
Yes me I'm sitting pretty life is pretty sitting with
Pretty sitting with pretty sitting with you
