The Millionaire

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Before we begin, thank you

Thank you, oh thank you, thank you

Thank you

I'm not a bad person, I don't drink and I don't kill

I've got no evil habits and I probably never will

I don't sing like Elvis Presley, I can't dance like Fred Astaire

But there's one thing in my favour, (what) I'm a millionaire (that's beautiful)

And I got more money than a horse has hairs

'Cause my rich old uncle died and answered all my prayers

But having all this money is gonna bring me down

If you ain't with me honey to help me spread it around

I could get myself a nose job, I could diet for a year

But I'll never be Robert Redford, 'cause I'm much too fond of beer

Please don't misunderstand me it's not love I'm trying to buy

It's just I got all this here money and I'm a pretty ugly guy

But I got more money than a horse has hairs

'Cause my rich old uncle died and answered all my prayers

But having all this money is gonna bring me down

If you ain't with me honey to help me spread it around

I don't mind if you love me for my money

If you love me for whatever else I've got

Except for all this stuff I'm alone in Fort Knox

I don't guess I'm doing all that hot

But I got more money than a horse has hairs

'Cause my rich old uncle died and answered all my prayers

But having all this money is gonna bring me down

If you ain't with me honey to help me spread it around

Hey you, come here babe

Stop crying

Put a quarter in the jukebox
