Come off the money (= get off the dime?)

[Douglas G. Wilson]

Graffito from 1928 (described as "very popular"; published in 1935):

Here I sit all broken hearted
Came to shit and only farted

It has a catchy double rhyme and I suppose it may be essentially the
original form. The form with the dime loses one rhyme but it has an
improved sense/message IMHO; it's probably a later-invented variant, I suppose.
