This Old Frugal

Sung to This Old Man This old frugal He bought one Silver dollar Just for fun With a thick stacked, natty pack Filled with silver eagles He’ll beat inflation And live regal This old frugal He bought two U.S. Gold Eagles That won’t devalue With a thick stacked, natty pack Filled with silver and gold He’ll beat inflation Before he’s too old This old frugal Has traded cash For precious metals A true value stash With a thick stacked, natty pack Filled with eighteen karat His kids will smile When they inherit This old man Is sad to see The printing of too Much paper money Get a thick stacked, natty pack To do yourself a favor And beat inflation As a metals saver May 14, 2023 Mother Goose Grows Up Contest
