My Name Is Morgan lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, my name is Willie Morgan, and I'm a hard-luck workin' man
The motto of my whole life has been, "Be as thrifty as you can"
I never use a US airmail stamp when a five-cent stamp'll do
And if you ask me for a dollar or two, well, here's what I say to you

[Chorus]
My name is Morgan but it ain't JP
Ain't got no banks in this world that are named for me
My money's in my pocket, and it ain't AT&T
My name is Morgan but it ain't JP

[Verse 2]
Now, I went down to a grocery store just to pick up an item or two
I had no need for a grocery cart, just little paper bag would do
I had to wait for an hour or more just to get a chance to pay
The man added up a figure, and he held out his hand, and I nearly fainted away

[Chorus]
My name is Morgan but it ain't JP
Ain't got no banks in this world that are named for me
My money's in my pocket, and it ain't AT&T
My name is Morgan but ain't JP

[Verse 3]
I took my gal to a Broadway show that the whole town wanted to see
Well, the taxi cost me eighty-five cents, it didn't mean a thing to me
I stepped up to that ticket booth, and I laid my money down
Well, he said, "These seats'll be fifteen bucks", you could hear me all over this town
[Chorus]
My name is Morgan but it ain't JP
Ain't got no banks in this world that are named for me
My money's in my pocket, and it ain't AT&T
My name is Morgan but ain't JP

[Verse 4]
I went walkin' down Bleeker Street with my lady friend, her name was Sue
Keepin' her out of them fancy shops was about all that I could do
She squealed with joy at a marvelous toy in the window of an antique shop
When the little old lady quoted a price, I thought my heart would stop

[Chorus]
My name is Morgan but it ain't JP
Ain't got no banks in this world that are named for me
My money's in my pocket, and it ain't AT&T
My name is Morgan but it ain't JP
I said it's Morgan but it ain't JP
