Money

Some folks think I'm greedy

And I just take from you

And if I say that's true now

What good would that do?

And if I wanted to be funny

I could say that all the money

That you spent on me was just

From fraud

And if I wanted to be bitter

I could say that little by little

All you did for me was no good

I didn't lose your money

I didn't lose your money

I didn't lose your money

Oh no your money just lost you

You brought me up this way

When just a little bit of love

Could have changed my ways

Some folks help the needy

Me I just help myself

And if I shared with you now

It would steadily decrease my wealth

And if I saw you on the street

With worn out shoes upon your feet

I wouldn't give you the price of a cup of tea

I know you brought me from the gutter

Helped me earn my bread and butter

But I have a lousy memory

I didn't lose your money

I didn't lose your money

I didn't lose your money

Oh no your money just lost you
