Money honey

Eddie Cochran · Live Performances 1957-1960 [2008]

You know the land-lady's ringin' my frontdoor bell

I let it ring for a long—long spell

Went to the window, peeked through the blinds, I said

Honey just exactly what you got on your mind

She said, money honey (money honey)

Money honey (money honey), money honey (yeah)

If you gonna get along with me

Well I screamed and hollered, I was so hard-pressed

I called the woman that I love best

Got my baby 'bout half past three, she says

Eddie boy, just exactly what you want with me

I said, money honey (money honey)

Money honey (money honey), money honey (yeah)

If you gonna get along with me



Well I learned my lesson and now I know

The sun may shine and a wind may blow

Women may come and women may go, but

Well I said I love you honey, I just want you to know

I want, money honey (money hone.y)

Money honey (money honey), money honey (yeah)

If you gonna get along with me

Money Honey
