Dollars. We all need them to survive, but the relentless pursuit of money can end up ruining our lives. Ironically, I spent all of my money recording this song.
lyrics
I know the money, the money is strong
Money talks and its arms are long
It sings you in with its sweet, sweet song
And then knocks you dead
I know the lines of credit make us blind
Trying to get what we won’t find,
And we dig ourselves just a little bit deeper
Deeper we fall in debt,
Deeper we fall and just keep writing those bouncing checks
Dollars, I got to get them dollars,
Been working hard for my dollars,
And them dollars’ll get the best of me
Dollars, I got to get them dollars,
Been working hard for my dollars,
And them dollars’ll be the death of me
Cash, got to make a splash,
Got to show up to the bash waving hundreds
If you ain’t got money then you ain’t got nothing
And I try, try to get what we won’t find,
But we’re all slaves to them dimes
It’s a heavy load that’s gonna break me down
Breaking me down to nothing,
Breaking me down to what’s left in my bank account
Dollars, I got to get them dollars,
Been working hard for my dollars,
And them dollars’ll get the best of me
Dollars, I got to get them dollars,
Been working hard for my dollars,
And them dollars’ll be the death of me
[My pockets ain’t deep and you know I need
Just a little relief from the money machine] x4
Dollars, I got to get them dollars,
Been working hard for my dollars,
And them dollars’ll get the best of me
Dollars, I got to get them dollars,
Been working hard for my dollars,
And them dollars’ll get the best of me
Dollars, I got to get them dollars,
Been working hard for my dollars,
And them dollars’ll be the death of me
Dollars, I got to get them dollars,
Been working hard for my dollars,
And them dollars’ll be the death of me
