For the Love of Money

Money, money, money, money (money)
Money, money, money, money (money)
Money, money, money, money (money)
Money, money, money, money (money)
Money, money, money, money (money)
Money, money, money, money (money)

Some people got to have it, yeah, yeah
Some people really need it, yeah
Listen to me y'all, do things, do things, do things bad things with it
Well, you wanna do things, do things, do things, good things with it, yeah
Talk about cash money, money

Talk about cash money
Dollar bills, y'all, c'mon now, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah

(For the love of money) people will steal from their mother
(For the love of money) people will rob their own brother
(For the love of money) people can't even walk the streets
Because they never know who in the world they're gonna beat
For that mean, oh mean, mean green
Almighty dollar, that money

(For the love of money) people will lie, Lord, they will cheat
(For the love of money) people don't care who they hurt or beat
(For the love of money) a woman will sell her precious body
For a small piece of paper, it carries a lot of weight
For that mean, mean, mean, mean, mean green
Almighty dollar, talkin' about, talkin' about

I know that money is the root of all evil
Do funny things to some people
Give me a nickel, brother, can you spare a dime?
Money can drive some people out of their mind
(For the love of money) no good, no good, no good
(For the love of money) don't sell your soul for the money, no, no
(For the love of money) lay down, lay down, women will

Money is the root of all evil
Do funny things to some people
Give me a nickel, brother, can you spare a dime?
Money can drive some people out of their minds

(For the love of money) got to have it, I really need it
(For the love of money) give it up, give it up, give it up, yeah
(For the love of money) got to have it, some people really need it
(For the love of money) give me, give me, give me, cash, money
(For the love of money) I need, I need
(For the love of money) give me, give me, give me
(For the love of money)

(For the love of money) how many things you have I heard just say?
(For the love of money) don't let it, don't let it, don't let it the money rule you
(For the love of money) how many things have I heard just say?
(For the love of money) don't let it, don't let it, don't let money fool you
(For the love of money) yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(For the love of money) got to have it, I really need it

Save your soul
Save your soul, don't sell it
For that mean, mean, mean, mean green

People don't let money, don't let money change you
Almighty dollar
People telling you
People don't let money, don't let money change you
Almighty dollar
'Cause it will keep on (changing, changing up your mind)
It will keep on, it will keep on (changing, changing up your mind)
Keep on tellin' truth, tellin' y'all

People don't let money, don't let money change you
Almighty dollar
Keeping tellin' y'all
People don't let money, don't let money change you
Almighty dollar
'Cause it will keep on (changing, changing up your mind)
It will keep on (changing, changing up your mind)
I'm just tellin' y'all
People don't let money, don't let money change you
Almighty dollar
