I Makes Money |
One, two, one, two, three, yeah |
Well, I makes money, money don’t make me |
And that’s the way I am and it’s plain to see |
Get right for yourself, can’t put you on the shelf |
Live and let live, you know it’s plain enough |
There ain’t a dollar in the world make me change my stuff |
Now, I met a lots of men who told me |
When they finally make their first million |
They’re gonna live like kings, gonna try everything |
Gonna flatter pretty women |
If they know how to do it, why not get to it |
Instead of waiting all your life |
Your life is only doing, what you think is worth pursuing |
Instead of waiting all the time |
Well, I makes money, money don’t make me |
And that’s the way I am and it’s plain to see |
Get right for yourself, can’t put you on the shelf |
Live and let live, you know it’s plain enough |
There ain’t a dollar in the world that make me change my stuff |
Now if you find yourself waiting and you know you’re hesitating |
Get your butt off the ground |
It ain’t money or your honey and you know it’s kind of funny |
When it’s all boiled down |
You gonna be the man, you know you certainly can |
Just do it, do it, do it, do it, do it |
Clothes don’t make the man, money won’t help you stand |
Any truer than you’re doin' |
Well, I makes money, money don’t make me |
And that’s the way I am and it’s plain to see |
Get right for yourself, can’t put you on the shelf |
Live and let live, you know it’s plain enough |
There ain’t a dollar in the world that make me change my stuff |
So you’ll never find the endin', sittin' and pretending |
You’re gonna do it sometime |
Keep it knocking on wood, doing exactly what you should |
Trying to save ten cents |
Keep build 'em up higher, so you can retire |
To your castle in the blue |
But you find it’s all behind and it’s probably slipped your mind |
And you’re too pooped to toot |
I makes money, money don’t make me |
And that’s the way I am and it’s plain to see |
Get right for yourself, can’t put you on the shelf |
Live and let live, you know it’s plain enough |
There ain’t a dollar in the world that make me change my stuff |
