Verse:
|
Em G A C
|
When I was just a boy, my granddaddy took me to town one afternoon
|
Em G A C
|
He drove an LTD, wore a big white Stetson, and two-tone cowboy boots
|
Em G A C
|
He said son “Here goes” and handed me a twenty just to see the look on my face
|
Em n/c B7 (ring)
|
He said, “Don’t tell your mama nothin’ about it, don’t spend it all in one place.”
|
|
Chorus I
|
Em G
|
You see it takes foldin’ money to get the deal done
|
A C
|
Foldin’ money to have a little fun
|
Em G
|
Foldin’ money to pay a few bills
|
A C
|
Eat a steak dinner, and cure a couple ills
|
Em G
|
Foldin’ money, you need a little stash
|
A C
|
Some greenback dollars and krupp hard cash
|
A B7
|
Save it for a rainy day or go away a little bit, son
|
Em G A C
|
It takes foldin’ money…to get the deal done.
|
|
Ever since the day I learned to earn a dollar I’ve been taking his advice to heart
|
‘Cause when a man finds the courage to keep his cash, some romance is bound to start
|
Now romance is just like money…you can always get more if you’ve got it
|
And let me tell you friends, I’m a lot more handsome with a C note in my pocket
|
|
Chorus II
|
You see it takes foldin’ money to get the deal done
|
Foldin’ money to have a little fun
|
Foldin’ money to pay a few bills
|
Take a girl dance, and cure a couple ills
|
Foldin’ money, you need a little stash
|
Some greenback dollars and krupp hard cash
|
Save it for a rainy day or go away a little bit, son
|
It takes foldin’ money…to get the deal done.

|
It’s a pain in the back, it’s a cold hard fact, gets to everybody sooner or later
|
You can give it to a charity and in some disparity, stock up your refrigerator
|
Couldn’t marry it or date it, it’ll kill you if you let it, you can blow it with nothing to show
|
It will make your wallet fatter, but the truth of the matter’s can’t take it with you when you go
|
|
|
|
|
Chorus III
|
You see it takes foldin’ money to get the deal done
|
Foldin’ money to have a little fun
|
Foldin’ money to pay a few bills
|
Spread a little ‘round, and cure a couple ills
|
Foldin’ money, you need a little stash
|
Some greenback dollars and krupp hard cash
|
Save it for a rainy day or go away a little bit, son
|
It takes foldin’ money…to get the deal done.
