Money Honey Lyrics

Money Honey lyrics

You know, the landlord rang my front door bell--
I let it ring for a long,
long spell--
I looked through the window, I peeked through the blind,
And
asked him to tell me what was on his mind.
He said, "Money, honey!
Money,
honey!
Money, honey,
If you wanna get along with me."

I was
cleaned and skinned and so hard-pressed--
I called the woman that I love the
best--
I finally reached my baby 'bout a half past three--
She said, "I'd
like to know what you want with me."
I said, "Money, honey!
Money,
honey!
Money, honey,
If you wanna get along with me."

She screamed
and said, "What's wrong with you?
From this day on, our romance is
through."
I said, "Tell me, baby, face to face--
A-how could another man
take my place?"
She said, "Money, honey!
Money, honey!
Money,
honey,
If you wanna get along with me."

Well, I learned my lesson and
now I know--
The sun may shine and the wind may blow--
Women may come, and
the women may go,
But before I say I love 'em so,
I want-- money,
honey!
Money, honey!
Money, honey,
If you wanna get along with
me.
(If you wanna get along) Well, make some money
(If you wanna get
along) Well, I ain't jivin' you, honey
(If you wanna get along) You better
give up some money
If you wanna get along with me.
