Money Honey

You know, the landlord rang my front door bell

I let it ring for a long, long spell

I went to the window, I peeked through the blind

And asked him to tell me what was on his mind

He said, "Money honey, yes

Money, honey

Money, honey

If you want to stay here with me"

I was cleaned and skinned and so hard-pressed

I called the woman that I love best

I finally got my baby 'bout a half past three

She said, I'd like to know what you want with me

I said, "Money, honey

Money, honey

Money, honey

If you want to get along with me"

She screamed and said, "What's wrong with you?

From this day on, our romance is through"

I said, "Tell me, baby, face to face

A-how could another man take my place?"

She said, "Money, honey

Money, honey

Money, honey

If you want to get along with me"

Now, I've learned my lesson, and now I know

The sun may shine, and the winds may blow

Women may come, and women may go

But before I say I love 'em so

I want-a money, honey

Money, honey

Money, honey

If you want to get along with me

If you want to get along (Well, make some money)

If you want to get along (Well, I ain't jivin' you, honey)

If you want to get along (You gotta give up some money)

If you want to get along with me
