Money Honey

Money honey, gotta get some quick

Cause this little pile I got won't do the trick

Money honey, money's what she wants

If I don't find some fast I might find her gone

Haulin' these bundle of shingles 'bout to break my back

And that jingle in my pocket ain't nothin' but roofin'

tacks

Gotta find me a line of work where I can use my mind

Gotta get out of these overalls and all of that

overtime

Money honey, money's what I need

If I'm ever gonna get her to reconsider me

Money honey, money's what it takes

But the harder I work seems like the less I make

I need me a big old slice of American pie

With some French vanilla ice cream on the side

I want to be like the boy that was born with a silver

spoon

But I'll settle for one of them jobs in that air-
