    Are you absolutely sure it's a song, and not a rhyme...I found a rhyme with those lyrics in it. Part of the rhyme goes like this:

    My gal's a corker, she's a New Yorker. I buy her everything to keep her in style. She has a pair of eyes just like two apple pies. Yea, man that's where my money goes....

    It was a soldiers traditional marching song also, called My Gal's a Corker

    Default I've Got a Corker

    I've Got a Corker
    She's a New Yorker
    I buy her everything to keep her in style

    She's got a long long nose,
    Just like a garden hose,
    Hey boys, that's where my money goes!

    My father used to sing this song. There may be other words but that is all I can think of right now.

    Thanks Bakequery.

    Here's some of the rest:

    My gal's a corker, she's a New Yorker
    I buy her everything to keep her in style
    She's got a pair of legs, just like two whiskey kegs
    Hey boys, that's where my money goes-oes-oes

    That's where my money goes, to buy my baby clothes
    I buys her everything to keep her in style
    She's worth her weight in gold, my coal black baby
    Hey boys, that's where my money goes

    When we go walkin', she does the talkin'
    And when my arm's round her, how time does fly
    She does the teasin', I do the sqeezin'
    Hey boys,...

    She's got a pair of eyes, just like two custard pies
    And when she looks at me, I sure get a thrill
    She's got a pair of lips, just like potato chips
    ...

    She's got a pair of legs, just like two whiskey kegs
    And when they knock together, oh what a sound
    She's got a pair of hips, just like two battle ships

    She's got a bulbous nose, just like a big red rose
    And when the lights go out, it really does shine
    She wears silk underwear, I wear my latest pair.

    re the song lyrics:
    "That's where my money goes
    To buy my baby clothes
    I buy her everything
    To keep her in style (well, well, well!)
    She wears silk underwear
    I wear my last year's pair
    Say boys, that's where my money goes!"

    See the Album
    "Sing Along with Mitch
    Mitch Miller and the Gang"

    or check the link for a picture of the Album cover.
    Those lyrics are burned into my memory from "singing along" as a child.

    I know what you're talking about, because my mom had that record too. It was Mitch Miller and the Gang.
