Lyrics I Wanna Be Rich - Manfred Mann

I Wanna Be Rich

I could buy me all the things I want to buy
Anything that took a fancy to my eye
Money — how I love the feel of money in my hand
But it runs through all my fingers just like sand
Here it comes now
Money, money, I wanna lot
I wanna lot more money than I’ve got
Money, money, I wanna lot
I wanna lot more money than I’ve got
I wanna be rich
What’s worth living for if you’re gonna stay poor
I wanna be rich
To live like a king would mean everything to me, to me
Money, now then I could live my life the easy way
And not break my back working every day now
Money, how I hate to think this feeling I feel is greed
But the more I get the more I seem to need now
Here it comes now
Money, money, I wanna lot
I wanna lot more money than I’ve got
Money, money, I wanna lot
I wanna lot more money than I’ve got
