Money Honey

(Jesse Stone)



You know the landlord that rings my frontdoor bell

I let him ring for a long long spell

I went to the window I peeped through the blind

And asked him to tell me what was on his mind

He said money honey, uh huh, money honey

Money honey, if you wanna stay here with me.



I screamed and I hollered I was so hard pressed

I called the man that I love the best

I find he got my baby bout half past three

He said I'd like to know what you want with me

I said money honey, oh, oh, money honey

Money honey, if you wanna get along with me money honey.

I screamed and I hollered I was so hard pressed

I called the man that I love the best

I said tell me baby face to face

How could another woman take my place

I said money honey, oh, oh, money honey

Money honey, if you wanna get along with me.



Now I've learned my lesson and now I know

The sun may shine and the winds may blow

The men may come the men may go

But before I'll say I love 'em so

I'm gonna say money honey, uh huh, money honey

Money honey, if you wanna get along with me...
