I Need Some Cash

I thought real hard, and so I ran out the door

Decided to go to the grocery store

I check my pocket, claim for claim

Had no money, so I got real mean

Now, I didn't have a penny to spare

All my pockets were just plain bare

Then I began to feel funny

Thought about gettin' some quick, easy money

So I went to see a friend of mine

To see if he was financially fine

And he started talkin' of this and that

About that time I grabbed my hat

I went to see my dear sweet mother

After that, I seen my brother

And he started talkin' all that jive

And all I wanted was to borrow a five

I need some cash, yeah

Got to have it fast

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah

Now you should understand my plea

Will someone out there please listen to me?

Five, ten, fifteen, or twenty

Someone out there, please give me some money

I see ya jammin' at the Discotheque

Well, I'm not choosy, write me a cheque

You wonder why there's so much crime?

People like me can't get a dime

If there's anyone who understands me

Let me hear you say "Money!"

(Money!)

I need some cash, yeah

Got to have it fast

Oh, yeah-yeah

Well, I know you ladies understand

'Cause what I really need is a man

A man who spends from four to two

A man who has some equity

Someone who is full of thrills

Someone who will pay my bills

Now I don't have time to be no crew

I just want someone to give me a clue

I wanna know who's got the stash

'Cause I really need some cash

If there's anyone who understands me

Let me hear you say "Money!"

(Money!)

I need some cash, yeah

Got to have it fast

Oh, yeah! Oh, yeah! Oh, yeah!

Gimme some cash

Gimme some cash, y'all

Just a little money, honey

I need some cash
