Money

Some folks think

I'm greedy.

And I just take from you.

And if I say it's true now what good would that do.

And if I wanted to be funny.

I could say that all the money.

That you spent on me was just from fraud.

And if I wanted to be bitter.

I could say that little by little.

All you did for me was no good.

I didn't lose your money.

I didn't lose your money.

I didn't lose your money.

Oh no your money just lost you.

You brought me up this way when just a little bit

Of love could have changed my ways.

Some folks help the needy.

Me I just help myself.

And if I shared with you now it would steadily decrease my wealth.

And if I saw you on the street.

With worn out shoes upon your feet.

I wouldn't spare you a price of a cup of tea.

I know you brought me from the gutter.

Helped me with my bread and butter.

But I have a lousy memory.

I didn't lose your money.

I didn't lose your money.

I didn't lose your money.

Oh no your money just lost you.

You brought me up this way when just a little bit

Of love could have changed my ways.

And just a little bit of love.

Love love love.

Could've changed my ways.
