Paid |
| Every day it gets harder |
| Just the cost of livin' pullin' me down |
| I try to stay above water |
| But these bills got me, 'bout to drown |
| I can’t keep livin' this life |
| Robbed and beat up but still … |
| I just been fightin' this fight |
| But I don’t know what’s the point of it all |
| I’ll keep a positive mind |
| But it’s hard to flow |
| When your cash is low |
| I’m workin' days and nights |
| Still I can’t get up out of this hole |
| Because I gets paid on the first, paid on the last |
| And struggle all through the middle |
| Every month I gets paid on the first, paid on the last |
| And struggle all through the middle |
| M O N E Y never seem to multiply for me |
| Ain’t nothin' movin' 'cause I keep losin' |
| M O N E Y never seem to multiply for me |
| Ain’t nothin' movin' 'cause I keep losin' |
| They make us know that they own us |
| Though I swear it’s more than slavery |
| They give each other a bonus |
| While our children live in poverty |
| What a shame, what a shame |
| I keep on teachin' my kids |
| You work hard, you’ll go far in this life |
| But the reality is |
| I’m slavin' on to the bone to survive |
| I’d like to take you away, girl |
| But I just can’t see |
| How that’s gonna be |
| Don’t like to slave in this way, girl |
| Somebody …, set her free |
| Because I gets paid on the first, paid on the last |
| And struggle all through the middle |
| Every month I gets paid on the first, paid on the last |
| (Workin' hard, workin' quite hard) |
| Because I gets paid on the first, paid on the last |
| And then I struggle through the middle |
| Every month I gets paid on the first, paid on the last |
| And struggle all through the middle |
| M O N E Y never seem to multiply for me |
| Not for me, not for me |
| M O N E Y never seem to multiply for me |
| Ain’t nothin' movin', I keep losin' |
| I’ll keep a positive mind |
| But it’s hard to flow |
| When your cash is low |
| I’m workin' days overtime |
| Still I can’t get up out of this hole |
| Because I gets paid on the first, paid on the last |
| And struggle all through the middle |
| Every month I gets paid on the first, paid on the last |
| On my back strugglin' |
| Because I gets paid on the first, paid on the last |
| I just struggle through the middle |
| Every month I gets paid on the first, paid on the last |
| On my back strugglin', strugglin' |
| M O N E Y never seem to multiply for me |
| Not a damn thing movin', no |
| M O N E Y never seem to multiply for me |
| Baby, baby |
| M O N E Y never seem to multiply for me |
| Ain’t nothin' movin' 'cause I keep losin' |
| M O N E Y never seem to multiply for me |
| Money, money, M O N E Y |
