Lyrics for Song: When The Money's Gone
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Jay-Z
[Chorus]
When the money goes, will the honeys stay?
When the grey skies replace the sunny days Hey,
hey, hey When the top back, I know I got
that But when I'm locked up... ...Guru, let me get that again
[Chorus x2]
When the money goes, will the honeys stay?
When the grey skies replace the sunny days Hey, hey, hey I got it now...
[Verse 1]
When my top back, I know I got that But when I'm locked
up, and I'm not back And I collect call,
will she accept that? Will she stay down,
through my setbacks? Through my downfalls,
and my downpours When them FBI boys is coming down
for us I know you riding with a nigga through the Gucci
store All through Prada, but what if I had nada?
Would the babe even bother if the block got hotter?
In the never-ending game that puts the cops versus
robbers? Am I in clouds or are you just along for the
ride? When I'm blasting out the window, will you grab the wheel and drive?
[Chorus x2]
When the money goes, will the honeys stay?
When the grey skies replace the sunny days Hey, hey, hey
[Verse 2]
When I fall off, and the drought hits And it knocks
me, out new outfits And the charm you got gotta hit
the pawn shop And you feel like crying,
but be strong and stop It was all good just a week
ago Now I'm wearing the same clothes a week in a row
Trying to scratch back Would she take a little check
from her little job like, "Nigga,
you can have that" You had belief in me,
or would you beef with me?
Is the good life the only thing you needed from me?
Would she roll out? Is she so out when the stoves out?
Or will she hold out?
[Chorus x2]
When the money goes, will the honeys stay?
When the grey skies replace the sunny days Hey, hey, hey
[Verse 3]
And your friends know what Hov get it in for But let's
just say that I didn't ride Benzo Would you say,
"Girl, why you still with him for?
" And if so, babe, why you around them hoes?
All they see is paper, not potential And they don't
have a nigga's back when he's in limbo And I ain't
asking you to do a life bid with me I don't want you
to die for me, baby, live with me I'm just saying,
when the going gets rough Don't forget all the shines
at the time I was showing up Show me the same love
you showed me when blowing up You told me it was Roc
for life, then throw it up
[Chorus x2]
When the money goes, will the honeys stay?
When the grey skies replace the sunny days Hey, hey, hey
