When I was a boy
|
I never played with toys
|
Never had a friend
|
Never laughed or cried much
|
And when I was a boy
|
My father was a man
|
With a strict and sturdy hand
|
No soft touch
|
|
Make that money, make that money
|
Make that money run like honey
|
On your tongue
|
Gotta make that money
|
Make that money, listen, sonny
|
Learn to sting before your stung
|
|
Now that I'm a man
|
Every penny has been planned
|
I'm financially grand
|
And perfectly greedy
|
Sentimental fools
|
I make all your rules
|
I've got your cash, got your jewels
|
They're all mortgaged to me
|
|
Make that money, make that money
|
Make that money run like honey
|
On your tongue
|
Gotta make that money
|
Make that money, listen, sonny
|
Learn to sting before your stung
|
|
And I know
|
'Cause he told me so
|
Told me so
|
I believe him
|
I still believe...
|
Give me that money
|
|
Controlling all your cash
|
I could make you live in trash
|
I eat pheasant, you eat hash
|
No philanthropy
|
But when it's time for me to croak
|
Bury me with all my dough
|
And where there should've been an oak
|
My private money tree will grow
|
|
Make that money
|
Said make that money
|
Make that money run like honey
|
On your tongue
|
|
Told me so
|
Told me so
|
He told me so
|
