Lyrics Elvis Presley

Elvis Presley

Who Needs Money

I'm on the right track for lots of kissin'

So that old greenback, I won't be missin'

All the greatest things in life are free

Who needs money, not me

Cash or credit, it doesn't matter

Long as my bank books keep growin' fatter

Easy street is my favorite avenue

Who needs money, I do

Just pity all those millionaires they never can relax

Because they're always worryin' about their income tax

Why waste time on high financin', I'd rather spend it on good romancin'

What if my pockets are empty as can be

Who needs money, not me

Tell me about it

Some folks save it, some folks lend it

But as for me I want to spend it

Give me some green and my skies will be blue

Who needs money, I do

Stocks and bonds, they only bore me

Interest holds no interest for me

Who wants to sit in the lap of luxury

Who needs money, not me

When I go to bed at night instead of counting sheep

I start counting dollar bills and then I fall asleep

Making money never thrills me

It's making love that really kills me

What can I lose with my philosophy

Who needs money, not me

What do you want

I want a big yacht, I can cruise in

The kind that girls just can't refuse in

All it takes is a million or two

Who needs money, I do

Any time some gal starts flirtin'

Now that I'm broke I know for certain

She really digs my personality

Tell me, who needs money not me

Poverty's the only thing that money cannot buy

So rich or poor it pays to have M-O-N-E-Y

A gal who's tender, that's what I love

It's legal tender, I want a pile of

Just let my liquid assets overflow

You can't take it with you when you go

So, who needs money

That lovely, lovely money

Who needs money, not me
