Lyrics:

I been laid off from work My rent is due My kids all need Brand new shoes So I went to the bank To see what they could do They said son - looks like bad luck Got-a hold on you Chorus: Money's too tight to mention I can't get an un-em-ploy-ment ex-ten-sion Money's too tight to mention I went to my brother To see what he could do - He said bro-ther like to help you But I'm unable to So I called on my fa-ther fa-ther Oh my fa-ther He said Chorus: Money's too tight to mention Oh mo-ney mo-ney mo-ney mon-ey Mo-ney's too tight to mention I can't even qual-i-fy for my pension We talk a-bout rea-gan-on-ics Oh lord down in the con-gress They're passing all kinds - of bills From down cap-it-ol hill - (we've tried them) Chorus: Money's too tight to mention (spoken) cut-back! Mo-ney mo-ney mo-ney mon-ey We're talk-in' a-bout mon-ey mon-ey We're talk-in' a-bout mon-ey mon-ey We're talk-in' 'bout the dollar bill Now what are we all to do When the mon-ey's got a hold on you? Mo-ney's too tight to mention Oh mon-ey mon-ey mon-ey mon-ey Mo-ney's too tight to mention A-mero - mon-ey oh yeah We're talk-in' a-bout mon-ey mon-ey We're talk-in' a-bout mon-ey mon-ey We're talk-in' a-bout mon-ey mon-ey We're talk-in' a-bout mon-ey mon-ey..
