You know the landlord rang my front doorbell
I let it ring for a long, long spell
I went to the window, I peed through the blind
And asked him to tell me what was on his mind
He said,
money, honey
Money,
honey, money,
honey
If you wanna get along with me
Well I screamed and I hollered,
I was so hard pressed
I called the woman that I loved the best I
finally got my baby by the 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 wanna get along with me
Well I said,
tell me baby,
what's wrong with you?
And this day on,
our romance is through I said,
tell me baby,
face to face
How could another man take my place?
Money, honey,
money, honey Money, honey,
money, honey
If you wanna get along with me
Well I've learned a lesson and now I know
The sun may shine and the winds may blow
The women may come and the women may go But before I say I love you
Money, honey,
money,
honey Money, honey,
money, honey
If you wanna get along with me
