Clyde Mcphatter - Money Honey lyrics

You know, the landlord rang my front door bell I let it ring for a long, long spell I looked through the window, I peeked 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" I was cleaned and skinned and so hard pressed I called the woman that I love the best I finally reached my baby 'bout a 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" She screamed and said, "What's wrong with you? From this day on, our romance is through" I said, "Tell me, baby, face to face A-how could another man take my place?" She said, "Money, honey Money, honey, money, honey If you wanna get along with me" Well, I learned my lesson and now I know The sun may shine and the wind may blow Women may come and the women may go But before I say, I love 'em so I want money, honey Money, honey, money, honey If you wanna get along with me (If you wanna get along) Well, make some money (If you wanna get along) Well, I ain't jivin' you, honey (If you wanna get along) You better give up some money If you wanna get along with me
