All right
Here it comes
Well, I can tell you for the money
The simple life honey is good, oh ho
Well, if you ask me how you made it
Secure life, baby, you should, oh yes you should
'Cause if you're doing all the best that you can
But still you're runnin' just as fast as the man says
Well, I can tell you for the money
The simple life honey is good, oh ho now yes it's good
Oh yeah
Now when you're movin' to the city
You worry on your mental health, yes you do, now
Oh, you gentlemen and ladies
You've got to be good to yourself
So get yourself into a ranch-style home
Oh, when the neighbor's never more than a stone's throw
Well, I can tell you for the money
The simple life honey is good, yes it is, yes it's good
That's right
Yeah, but oh, no
All the money
Still you just can't please everybody
How bad do, do you want it?
'Cause the money
It looks so good, good, good
Yeah
So now you're chasin' the American dream
Just like the dollar's gonna make everybody scream
But I can tell you for the money
The simple life sure looks good, oh that's right, now, yes it's good
Oh yeah, oh, no
All the money
Looks so good, good, good to everybody
How bad do, do you want it?
'Cause the money
It looks so good, good, good
Now there's a whole lot of faking
And takin' and shakin' my hand, oh ho
And when they tell you they love ya
They love ya like a one night stand
So if you're playin' in a rock and roll band
But still you're doing whatever the man says
Well, I can tell you for the money
The simple life honey is good, that's right, yes it's good
Ahh haa
Take care
