People sure act funny
When they get a little money
Yes they do y'all
Should act funny
When they get a little money
Yes they do y'all
I knowed you when you lived in a hurt
You made your living form the canned gut
Now you living on easy street
You passed me by
and you don't wanna speak
People should do holler
When they get hold to a dollar
Yes they do y'all
Should do holler
when they get hold to a dollar
Yes they do man
I knowed you when you didn't have no shoes
Your whole family sang the low down blues
Now you're grinning like a chessy cat
Your pockets is so big and fat
People should do squeal
When they get a dollar bill
Yes they do man
Should do squeal
When they get a dollar bill
Yes they do y'all
I knowed you when you were my friend
I stuck with you through the thick and thin
You hit the numbers
Then you put me down
I'm here to tell you
You changed and turned around
People should act mean
When they get a mess of green
Yes they do man
Should act mean
When they get a mess of green
Yes they do man
I knowed you when you didn't have a dime
We'd be together all the time
Now that you're a millionaire
You can't be found anywhere
People should act funny
When they get a little money
Yes they do y'all
Should act funny man
when they get some money
I don't want to be around them
I'm gonna get out of this town
And find me some money
What about you man
Everybody should act funny
