Lyrics

It was the biggest house in the neighborhood
He went and bought this house when he made good
Ten bedrooms and a swimming pool
Where he entertained all the people that he knew
But he hit the hard times and had to sell out
Most exclusive residence for sale

He went and spent all the money that he had
Because he had a heart and not a head
He spent it all on girls and fancy jewelry
Then he found himself in front of a judge and jury
And the judge said to pay up, our you must sell out
Most exclusive residence for sale

He had to tell all the servants to go away
Couldn't even afford to pay their way
He took to the bottle and drunk himself down
Then he soaked away all the troubles and let them drown
Then he saw a notice on the wall
Most exclusive residence for sale
Most exclusive residence for sale
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
