Money Honey

Well, the landlord rang my front door bell

I let it rang for a long, long spell

Went to the window, peeped through the blind

Asked him to tell me what was on his mind

He said, "Money honey, money honey, money honey

If you wanna stay here with me"

I was clean and screened and so hard pressed

I called the woman that I loved the best

Finally found my baby 'bout a quarter to three

She said, "I'd like to know what you want with me"

And I said, "Money honey, money honey, money honey

If you wanna get along with me"

Well, she screamed and said

"What's wrong with you, from this day forth

Our romance is through"

I said, "Tell me baby, face to face

How could another man take my place ?"

She said, ""Money honey, money honey, money honey

If you wanna get along with me"

I've learned a lesson and now I know

Sun may shine, wind may blow

Women may come and women may go

But before I tell 'em that I love 'em so

I want "Money honey, money honey, money honey

If you wanna get along with me".
