Money (Featuring Gary "Nesta" Pine & Dollarman)

Money, get away

Get a good job with more pay and you're okay

Money, it's a gas

Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash

New car, caviar, four star daydream

Think I'll buy me a football team

Money, get back

I'm all right Jack, keep your hands off of my stack

Money, it's a hit

Don't give me that do good-goody good bullshit

I'm in the high-fidelity first class traveling set

And I think I need a Lear jet

Money will make a good man bad, yah yah

Money will make nuff man bad, yah yah

Money will make bredren and bredren go to war

Figet about the gud times

Nuh bodda mek it change your ways

If yuh nuh careful it will make yuh lose your mind, yes!

If yuh worship it, destined fi a fall

Very addictive, watch di selective

Nuh bodda sell yuh soul, just fi di money

When Jah-Jah come, ain't nut'n funny

Cyaan pay yuh way inna Mount Zion

Haffi have 'nuff love inna yuh heart mi fren, yeah yuh jus

Neva remember wen dem used to beg a dollah

Neva remember wen dem used to dead fi hungah

Now dem get rich an a gwaan like big timah

Burn dung di bridge dat dem cross ovah

Bwoy yuh can rich todeh, an broke tomorrow

Don't you know dat's di way life go? Yes!

Money a money and friend a friend

Mi nah put no money before my bredren

Dem a rush it an a kill fi de dollah

Fi de love of money man a kill him owna brodda

Powah is money, money is powah

Materialistically dem get conquer

Hear weh di a guh teach dem

It a di root of all evil

Ghetto youth, gyal ave man, me a beg unnu

Doh bodda mix up inna di bwoy dem suttin'

Boy if a trouble yuh will get it, pon di double

Pon de paypah chase, boy nuh watch no face

Any likkle ting dem waan fi done di place

Man a defend faith in dollas and cents, yah

No bodda play wid yuh life, yah mi fren

Well-well-well, well

Money will make a good man bad, yah-yah-yah-yas

Money will make nuff man bad, yah-yah-yah-yas

Money, money

Money, it's a crime

Share it fairly but don't take a slice of my pie

Money, so they say

Is the root of all evil today

But if you ask for a rise it's no surprise that they're

Giving none away, away, away, away, away

Away, away, away, away, away
