Money money money money, money

Money money money money, money

Some people got to have it

Hey, some people really need it, hey

Listen to me y'all, do things, do things, do things, bad things with it

Well, you wanna do things, do things, do things, good things with it

Talk about cash money, money, yeah

Talk about cash money-dollar bills, y'all

(Call-out, call-out, call-out, call-out money)

For the love of money

People will steal from their mother

For the love of money

People will rob their own brother

For the love of money

People can't even walk the street

Because they never know who in the world they're gonna beat

For that lean, mean, mean green

Almighty dollar, money

For the love of money

People will lie, lord, they will cheat

For the love of money

People don't care who they hurt or beat

For the love of money

A woman will sell her precious body

For a small piece of paper it carries a lot of weight

Call it lean, mean, mean green

Almighty dollar, yeah

Talk about, talk about

I know the cash, yeah, is the root of all evil

Do funny things to some people

Give me a nickel, brother can you spare a dime

Money can rise all people out of their minds

For the love of money

It's no good, oh

For the love of money

Don't sell your soul for the money

For the love of money

Lay down, lay down

For the love of money

Money is the root of all evil

Does funny things to some people

Give me a nickel, brother can you spare a dime

Money can rise people out of their minds

People don't let money

Don't let money change you, almighty dollar

People don't let money

Don't let money change you, almighty dollar

Changing, changing all of your mind

Changing, changing all of your mind

People don't let money

Don't let money change you, almighty dollar

People don't let money

Don't let money change you
