If Id As Much Money As I Could To Spend — Nursery Rhyme Lyrics

If I'd as much money as I could to spend,
I never would cry "Old chairs to mend,
Old chairs to mend,
Old chairs to mend;"
I never would cry "Old chairs to mend."
If I'd as much money as I could tell,
I never would cry "Old clothes to sell,
Old clothes to sell,
Old clothes to sell;"
I never would cry "Old clothes to sell."
