The best things in life are free
But you can keep ’em for the birds and bees
Now give me money
That’s what I want
That’s what I want…
Your loving gives me a thrill
But your loving don’t pay my bills
Now give me money
That’s what I want
That’s what I want…
Money don’t get everything it’s true
What it don’t get, I can’t use
Now give me money
That’s what I want
That’s what I want…
Money don’t get everything it’s true
What it don’t get, I can’t use
Now give me money
That’s what I want
That’s what I want…
Well, now give me money
That’s what I want
A whole lotta money
That’s what I want
Oh yeah, I wanna be free
That’s what I want
A whole lotta money
That’s what I want
That’s what I want…
