Analysis of Money by Charley Edward Hinkel

Charley Edward 1979 (United States)



Money needed-
coins and paper,
plastic card with numbers
on it...
well, it's like paper,
cotton I suppose.
Some other mix as well.
Gold, silver, copper, nickel
so on.
Peso, greenback, loot, or cheddar.
Slap you some skin?  Okay, I'd love to
share some skins.
We all need "know how"
these days.
