"Money (That's What I Want)" lyrics

"Money (That's What I Want)"
(originally by Barrett Strong)

You know the best things in life are free
But you can give 'em to the birds and bees

I need money
That's what, what I want
That's what I want
That's what, what I want
That's what I want
That's what I want

Lots of things are gonna cure my ills
But only one thing's gonna pay my bills

And that's money
That's what, what I want
That's what I want, oh yeah
That's what, what I want
That's what I want
That's what I want

Your lovin' give me such a thrill
But your lovin' don't pay my bills

Give me money money
That's what, what I want
That's what I want, oh yeah
That's what, what I want
That's what I want
That's what I want

Money isn't everything, it's true
But what I can't buy, I'll never use

I need money
That's what, what I want
That's what I want
That's what
Stomp, shout, work it on out yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
That's what I want

I need money
That's what, that's what I want
A lotta money
That's what, that's what I want
I need money
That's what, that's what I want
That's what I want
That's what, oh yeah
That's what I want
Oh yeah, that's what I want
