Lyrics Charlie Daniels

Charlie Daniels

Money

People get all upset and they shiver

And they sweat for money

It don't seem to make no difference

Which a way the wind might blow

They scrimp and they save and

They'll dig an early grave for money

They act like maybe they can take it

With 'em when they go

People work all their lives

And they marry ugly wives for money

There ain't no telling what a money

Hungry man might do

They cheat and they steal and they murder

And they kill for money

Now I've heard tell that there is

Some money hungry women too

They say gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme all

That you've got, I want your money

Give it to me, give it to me, I want a lot

I want it all, I want it right now

Ladies of the night get out

On the street and fight for money

They'll be standing on the corner

Freezing in the midnight air

You can take it out in trade

Just as long as they get paid in money

If it's dirty or clean just as long

As it's green they don't care

They say gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme all

That you've got, I want your money

Give it to me, give it to me, I want a lot

I want it all, I want it right now

People get all upset and they shiver

And they sweat for money

It don't seem to make no difference

Which a way the wind might blow

They scrimp and they save and

They'll dig an early grave for money

They act like maybe they can take it

With 'em when they go

People work all their lives

And they marry ugly wives for money

There ain't no telling what a money

Hungry man might do

They cheat and they steal and they murder

And they kill for money

Now I've heard tell that there is

Some money hungry women too
