My Money's Green
Little Charlie & Nightcats
1988 - ALCD4761
Got a shark-skin suit, metallic blue.
Glows in the dark an' daytime, too.
Anytime I'm seen, I'm clean.
'Cause honey, my money's green.
Pack my feet, Italian style.
In two-toned baby crocodile.
When I step, I'm steppin' out.
You can hear my money shout.
My money's green.
Well, it's green an long, an' fat.
My money's green.
A-honey that's where it's at.
My money's green.
Like to spend it ev'ryday.
My money's green.
It ain't nothin' but some paper, anyway.
Now, I don't know but I've been told.
Streets of heaven are paved with gold.
I don't know, but I've heard tell.
There ain't no money, down in (****).
Well, I played a deal with poverty.
We just let each other be.
I ain't rich, you understand.
But I got cash on hand.
My money's green.
Well, it's green, an' long, an' fat.
My money's green.
An' honey, that's where it's at.
My money's green.
Like to spend it ev'ryday.
My money's green.
It ain't nothin' but some paper, anyway.
(Instrumental & guitar solo)
Yesterday is history.
Tomorrow is a mystery.
Spend my money when I can.
I might not have the chance again.
I can't tell you what to do.
But this is my advise to you.
If you're goin' out tonight.
Be sure your money's right.
My money's green.
Hey, it's green, an' long, an' fat.
My money's green.
Ooo! honey that's where it's at.
My money's green.
Like to spend it ev'ryday.
My money's green.
It ain't nothin' but some paper, anyway.
An' I don't care if the market crashed, cuz.
All of mine's tied up in cash!
