lyrics
First verse:
America is a golden land, as everyone admits,
With swindlers, fakers, bluffers
All known there as “company.”
A greenhorn comes over and opens a soda stand,
The second day already he calls it
“Chaim Chaskel and Company”
Though the stand doesn’t
Amount to very much, he still calls it a company,
So you see, everything’s a company!
America is a golden land, as everyone admits,
With swindlers, fakers, bluffers
All known there as “company.”
A greenhorn comes over and opens a soda stand,
The second day already he calls it
“Chaim Chaskel and Company”
Though the stand doesn’t
Amount to very much, he still calls it a company,
So you see, everything’s a company!
