The Money Game
I know your daddy is very wealthy
And that he owns half the town in which my old man worked
For half a crown an hour five days a week
Who was too tired in the night to speak about the things in his head.
Oh Anna what does money mean anyway?
I've got more than all that
I can smile when it's a rainy day
I can see what's behind the big money game they all must play.
Oh Anna, it's not too easy to play the game
When you know the rules in favour of the
Man who has some golden cuff links
For his silken shirt and who never sees the dirt.
Oh Anna what does money mean anyway?
I've got more than all that
I can smile when it's a rainy day
I can see what's behind the big money game they all must play.
Oh Anna, I don't give a damn
If your daddy can not see me for the things I really am
And I don't mind if your mummy and her kind
Don't like my hair, I don't care because it's you that's on my mind.
Oh Anna what does money mean anyway?
I've got more than all that
I can smile when it's a rainy day
I can see what's behind the big money game they all must play.
Oh Anna what does money mean anyway?
I've got more than all that
I can smile when it's a rainy day
I can see what's behind the big money game they all must play.
And that he owns half the town in which my old man worked
For half a crown an hour five days a week
Who was too tired in the night to speak about the things in his head.
Oh Anna what does money mean anyway?
I've got more than all that
I can smile when it's a rainy day
I can see what's behind the big money game they all must play.
Oh Anna, it's not too easy to play the game
When you know the rules in favour of the
Man who has some golden cuff links
For his silken shirt and who never sees the dirt.
Oh Anna what does money mean anyway?
I've got more than all that
I can smile when it's a rainy day
I can see what's behind the big money game they all must play.
Oh Anna, I don't give a damn
If your daddy can not see me for the things I really am
And I don't mind if your mummy and her kind
Don't like my hair, I don't care because it's you that's on my mind.
Oh Anna what does money mean anyway?
I've got more than all that
I can smile when it's a rainy day
I can see what's behind the big money game they all must play.
Oh Anna what does money mean anyway?
I've got more than all that
I can smile when it's a rainy day
I can see what's behind the big money game they all must play.
