"The Gold Diggers' Song (We're in the Money)" is a song from the 1933 Warner Bros. Pictures film Gold Diggers of 1933, sung in the opening sequence by Ginger Rogers and chorus. Of special note is an extreme close-up of Rogers singing a verse in Pig Latin.
The lyrics were written by Al Dubin and the music by Harry Warren. It became a standard with a well-known melody. It is one of the songs of the Broadway musical 42nd Street.

Hmmm...
Ginger was singing and dancing to this song in the same year I was born...
I was introduced to this song by Daffy Duck.
Interesting how they chose the Liberty Head $5 gold coin as their representation of "in the money."
One of my favorite movies.
Great Depression era movie.
