Lyrics
Chorus
Stocks are low, may get lower
Thing are slow, may get slower
Hey! Hey! I’m glad to say
There’s no depression in love
Bankers sad, getting sadder
Times are bad, doesn’t matter
Hey! Hey! I’m glad to say
There’s no depression in love
Folks go right on making love
And how it’s enjoyed
When the moon is up above
Nobody’s unemployed
Ev’rywhere there’s a Lizzie
With a pair who are busy
Hey! Hey! I’m glad to say
There’s no depression in love
Chorus
Rails and steels may be quiet
Sex appeals profit by it
Hey! Hey! I’m glad to say
There’s no depression in love
Money’s tight, dimes are dollars
But at night in the parlors
Hey! Hey! I’m glad to say
There’s no depression in love
No one’s buying lots of things
On the other hand
Solitaires and wedding rings
Still are in great demand
Goods are cheap, nothing’s selling
Babies keep right on yelling
Hey! Hey! I’m glad to say
There’s no depression in love
