Lyrics
Money
Words and Music by Gordon Moir and George Paterson
Chorus
Money is the root of all joy, money!
Money is the root of all joy, money!
My papa once told me, that what gets you thru lies and fraud
Is to get on your knees, cash in your pleas and start praying to the only god
He said ?Son stop reading the Bible, ?cause Bibles will never do
Even Jesus the man is cashing in his hand
Cause only one god will see you thru??MONEY!
Chorus
Money is the root of all joy, money!
Repeat
He said ?Go forth to the temple and talk to the preacher man
He?ll give you advice on every vice then send you to the promised land
Say hail to the mighty greenback, bow down to the mighty red
And never look down on a blue or a brown
With a note they will kill you dead?..Money!
Repeat chorus
Money is the root of all joy
All that glitters is gold
Diamonds are my best friend
I?m a material girl
(you better believe it)
Money?..give me all your money
Repeat chorus to end
