said that he would answer every need
|
said that we could trust him and believe
|
if your god hasn¡¯t found an answer yet
|
you better find a way to hedge your bets
|
you need an angle in this game
|
got to make yourself a name
|
cross your fingers for that lucky break
|
|
too insecure to live by faith
|
we¡¯re always looking for some other way
|
|
shake, shake, shake the money tree
|
shake, shake, shake the money tree
|
trusting in our wealth
|
trusting in ourselves
|
shake, shake, shake the money tree
|
|
contentment is a secret we can learn
|
regardless of the money that we earn
|
doesn¡¯t come by rising in the world
|
comes by taking jesus at his word
|
he has promised to provide
|
everything we need for life
|
now we¡¯re caught inside a living lie
|
|
too insecure to live by faith
|
we¡¯re always looking for some other way
|
|
shake, shake, shake the money tree
|
shake, shake, shake the money tree
|
trusting in our wealth
|
trusting in ourselves
|
shake, shake, shake the money tree
|
|
you gotta-gotta raise that sex appeal
|
you gotta-gotta work that business deal
|
you got to charge what you cannot steal
|
deep inside you¡¯re scrounging for a meal
|
make a perfect idol of your wealth
|
every man and woman for themselves
|
you burn you conscience on the corner shelf
|
you¡¯re dying while you¡¯re trusting in yourself
|
