TURN IT INTO CASH by Cliff Richard & The Settlers 1969 (unreleased recording) + lyrics

From 'Johnny Come Home' TV series 1969

When I was little you took me aside
With a serious look on your face
The business, you told me, would always provide
Provided we kept in our place

Fine words, fine words
But turn them into cash
Hope is good but help is better
Turn it into cash

When I was older you shot me a line
A Boomtown that lay just ahead
The way you explained it, we'd all get on fine
Ten minutes after we're dead

Fine words, fine words
But turn them into cash
Hope is good but help is better
Turn it into cash

Now I'm way past twenty, the time has run out
The future's the present for me
A quid in the hand is worth two up the spout
I'm ready, I'm willing, I'm free

Fine words, fine words
So turn them into cash
Hope is good but help is better
Turn it into cash
Hope is good but help is better
Turn it into cash
