Money Honey

(Jesse Stone)

You know the landlord that rings my frontdoor bell
I let him ring for a long long spell
I went to the window I peeped through the blind
And asked him to tell me what was on his mind
He said money honey, uh huh, money honey
Money honey, if you wanna stay here with me.

I screamed and I hollered I was so hard pressed
I called the man that I love the best
I find he got my baby bout half past three
He said I'd like to know what you want with me
I said money honey, oh, oh, money honey
Money honey, if you wanna get along with me money honey.

I screamed and I hollered I was so hard pressed
I called the man that I love the best
I said tell me baby face to face
How could another woman take my place
I said money honey, oh, oh, money honey
Money honey, if you wanna get along with me.

Now I've learned my lesson and now I know
The sun may shine and the winds may blow
The men may come the men may go
But before I'll say I love 'em so
I'm gonna say money honey, uh huh, money honey
Money honey, if you wanna get along with me...
