"Lotta Money" lyrics

T Bone Burnett & Elvis Costello Lyrics

"Lotta Money"

There's an awful lot of money going round
Some of it's shillings, threepenny bits and pounds
Some of it's bucks, some of it's bits
But if I don't get some I'm gonna call it quits

Some of it's dollars, some of it's cents
I don't have much it's gonna make no sense
There's an awful lot of money going round

There's an awful lot of money going round
There's an awful lot of money going round
Some are just markers, signed with "X"
"I.O.U"s and cancelled cheques
Some are just bills, counterfeit
Written in blood on the balance sheet
There's an awful lot of money going round

I want a lotta money - lotta money
I want a lotta money - lotta money
I want a lotta money - lotta money
I want a lotta money - lotta money
There's an awful lot of money going round

There's an awful lot of money going round - and round and round and round
Some of it's shilling, threepenny bits and pounds - I want a thousand pounds
Some of it's bucks, some of it's bits
If I don't get some I'm gonna call it quits

Some of it's dollars, some of it's cents
I don't have much that don't make no sense
There's an awful lot of money going round

I want a lotta money - lotta money
I want a lotta money - lotta money
I want a lotta money - lotta money
I want a lotta money - lotta money
I want a lotta money - lotta money
There's an awful lot of money going round

That's what I want...
Gimmie money...
