In just a moment another Ellington classic,
to take our place at the microphone
Mr. Ellington? Thank you.
I know I haven't had time
to put this little rhyme to music yet
what you folks think of the words.
There was a young woman named
Who cried to her mother one day?
and so that is that I'm off to
There was a young woman named Belle,
who really got paid very well.
She said to her mom, I'm buying a bond.
Now which one is smarter, pray tell?
Well, I'm not saying that you girls don't
need a new hat now and then.
But it is a mighty smart idea
to invest part of your salary
in United States savings bond
every single day, payday.
If you keep that up regularly,
when you can buy far more
get yourself a whole new wardrobe
and take that long vacation cruise
you've so often dreamed about.
you'll get back 4 in just 10 years,
and that's good, solid investment.
Save for it through United
or on the payroll savings plan where you work.
