Well, the landlord rang my front door bell |
|
I let it rang for a long, long spell |
|
Went to the window, peeped through the blind |
|
Asked him to tell me what was on his mind |
|
He said, "Money honey, money honey, money honey |
|
If you wanna stay here with me" |
|
I was clean and screened and so hard pressed |
|
I called the woman that I loved the best |
|
Finally found my baby 'bout a quarter to three |
|
She said, "I'd like to know what you want with me" |
|
And I said, "Money honey, money honey, money honey |
|
If you wanna get along with me" |
|
Well, she screamed and said |
|
"What's wrong with you, from this day forth |
|
Our romance is through" |
|
I said, "Tell me baby, face to face |
|
How could another man take my place ?" |
|
She said, ""Money honey, money honey, money honey |
|
If you wanna get along with me" |
|
I've learned a lesson and now I know |
|
Sun may shine, wind may blow |
|
Women may come and women may go |
|
But before I tell 'em that I love 'em so |
|
I want "Money honey, money honey, money honey |
|
If you wanna get along with me". |
