Now people keep on saying that money's evil
Yet everybody I know, they all got that money fever
Now those that got it are trying very hard to keep it
Some of those people love money so much that if they could they would eat it

Now the ladies say my gift of gab is fair
But my sweet talk ain't gonna get my anywhere
Even though I've got a good conversation
They said talk is cheap when there's twenty percent inflation

They all want that money
Money, money, money, money, money

Now too much money can make you crazy
Having too much money can also make you lazy
Having enough can be a good thing
Not having enough can be a shame

The love of money is just plain evil
The Good Book said it, so I believe it

Talking about money
Awwww, a lot of money
Money, money, money

The love of money can be just plain evil
The Good Book said it, so I believe it
Money can be a good thing if you use it
When you don't do right, sometimes you lose it

Hey Benny, can you spare a dime?
Man it's rough out here
Man I saw a worm pull a bird in the ground
You know it's tough
Everybody need money
I need some money
It's doggone hard out here
