She got the money and I got the honey
Called my baby late last night
She told me, daddy, everything was all right
She got the money and I got the honey
She got the money and I got the honey
She got the money and I got the honey
I don't have to worry ?cause she's real fine
I know my baby and she's all mine
She give me a Cadillac, a diamond ring
She told me, daddy, don't you worry ?bout a thing
She got the money and I got the honey
She got the money and I got the honey
She got the money and I got the honey
She's all mine and I'm so glad
She's the best woman that I ever had
She's all mine and I'm so glad
She's all mine and I'm so glad
She's all mine and I'm so glad
Ah, stop your train
Ah, mama, stop your train
