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.
The best things in life are free
But you can give it to the birds and bees
I need mon-ey
(That's what I want)
That's what I want, hey!
(That's what I want)
I need money, that's what I want
That's what I want
Your love give me such a thrill
But your love won't pay my bills
I need mon-ey
(That's what I want)
That's what I want
(That's what I want)
Hey!
That's what I want
(That's what)
That's what I want
(What I want)
That's what I want
(That's what I want)
(sax & instrumental)
Money can't buy ev'rything, it's true
But what it don't buy, I can't use
I need mon-ey
(That's what I want)
That's what I want
(That's what I want)
That's what I want
(That's)
That's what I want
(What I want)
That's what I want
(That's what I want)
Hey!
Give me money
That's what I want
I need money
That's what I want
Got a shape an a pretty face
But there ain't nothin'
Can take the place
I want money
That's what I want
That's what I want
That's what I want
That's what I want
I need money
That's what I want
You do the Twist, baby
That won't do
You can do the Hully Gully
But that won't do
Whoa
Get yo' shotgun
But that won't do
Do the Twine
That won't do
'Cause I need money
To keep me true
Whoa!
I need money
To keep me true
Baby, now what'd I say
Oh, you know what I mean
Woo!
(sax & instrumental)
I need money
That what I want
'Cause I need money
To keep it true
Hey!
Looks like, maybe
Yeah, you are through
'Cause I need money
To be with you
I need money
That's what I want
That's what I said
That's what I want
Woo!
