Lyrics:

You know the landlord rang my front doorbell
I let it ring for a long, long spell
I went to the window, I peeped through the blind
And asked him to tell me what was on his mind

He said, 'Money, honey, huh-huh
Money, honey
Money, honey
If you want to get along with me'

Well, I screamed, and I hollered, I was so hard-pressed
I called the woman that I loved the best
I finally got my baby about half-past three
She said, 'I'd like to know what you want with me'

I said, 'Money, honey, huh-huh
Money, honey
Money, honey
If you want to get along with me'


Well, I said, 'Tell me, baby, what's wrong with you?'
'From this day on our romance is through'
I said, 'Tell me, baby, face to face
How could another man take my place?'

She said, 'Money, honey, huh-huh
Money, honey
Money, honey
If you want to get along with me'

Well, I've learned my lesson, and now I know
The sun may shine, and the winds may blow
The women may come, and the women may go
But before I say, 'I love you so'

I want money, honey, huh-huh
Money, honey
Money, honey
If you want to get along with me
