Business Is Business (21 Apr 1911)
Berlin Irving [chorus:] Bus'ness is bus'ness, Miss Rosie Cohen I've got to pay for ev'rything I own Seven suits of clothes your father took out from my store All he says is 'Charge it to my future son-in-law' Tell your expensive father C.O.D. Don't mean, 'Come on down to my store' For Ev'ry little dollar carries int'rest all it's own Bus'ness is bus'ness, Rosie Cohen!
[2nd verse:] Abie said, 'Listen Rosie dear Ev'ry month a suit means just a dozen suits a year Seven years and then your father Mose He will have enough to start a clothing store Then again, father is no fool He can tell a cotton suit from one that's made of wool Since I fell in love with you Rose Your father is so hard on clothes
