Money Is

Lyrics

I got a Ph.D. in how to make ends meet I graduated from the college in the street Inflation in the nation don't bother me 'Cause I'm a scholar when it comes to the almighty dollar [Chorus] Money, money, money, money is Money's on my mind Money, money, money moves me I even like the money sign I'm so mean with the green I make a dollar want to holler Make a mark want to bark Make a pound want to frown Money, money, money, money is Money's on my mind Ain't no such thing as dirty money The rich folks know what I mean And money ain't got no smell, let me tell you How some green can keep you clean [Chorus] Money, money, money, money is Money's on my mind Money, money, money moves me Even like the money sign So mean with the green I make a yen want to grin Make a franc want to clank Make a twenty look plenty Money, money, money, money is The only thing that's on my mind I'd rather be well-to-do Then have to I-O-U I think my friend, brother Getty would agree There's only one thing that money can't buy And that is poverty [Chorus] Money, money, money, money is Money's on my mind Money, money, money moves me I even like the money sign Money, money, money, money is Money's on my mind I'm a stone-cold taker I'm a piggy-bank shaker I use every ruse, talking trash So if you go to my school You got to learn to this rule: Don't let your mouth write a check That your body can't cash [Chorus] Money, money, money, money is Money's on my mind Money, money, money moves me I even like the money sign I'm so mean with the green I make a dollar want to holler Make a mark want to bark Make a pound want to frown Money, money, money, money is The only thing that's on my mind My eyes start to blinkin' when I flash on some Lincolns! My mind start relaxin' when my pocket is full of Jacksons!
