Lyrics
?Money Talks?
(And it often just says good-bye)
Yo Bro what you know how?s your cash flow?
Easy come easy go, hay you never know
Money?s hard coming in it just flies out
Seems like I?m always in a cash drought
Empty pockets don?t make me, make me no sense
I keep paying them bills man, but they?re still immense
The landlord don?t want to hear that the money?s spent
All they know is ?gimme my rent?
So I try to keep the bill collectors satisfied
Though some times you get taken for a ride yeah
It?s plain to see that money do talk
But as soon as it comes in man it just takes off
CHORUS: I said now Money Talks
I?m telling you money talks
I know it do money talks
(And it often just says good-bye)
Now them credit cards I confess
Always get me in a big mess yeah
It?s nice and easy when they only take the ?plastic?
But paying them back man, could get drastic
Another bill to pay that?s rough
Hay buddy how about a few on the cuff
What?s the use of always complaining?
While my bank account, man keeps on draining
Life?s to short crazy and bazaar
I think I?ll take myself a loan and buy a new car
Cause you can?t take it with you to your grave
So what?s the use man trying to save?
Chorus: cause money talks
Bridge: aint going to worry about who I owe
My new motto is ?easy come, easy go?
Now money talks
Yeah now life?s a gamble it can be quite tough
To survive man, you need the right stuff
A lot of money in my pockets, I?m talking about cash
Would make my life right in a flash
I got a stack of bills that get bigger each week
Every time I get paid they just knock me off my feet
So it?s lotto I play each day to win
Sometimes I feel like jumping out of my skin
If I could just get even, out of the red
Getting some extra green would be good for my head
So I keep on hoping, wishing each day
If my ship would come in, it would be a ?pay day?
Chorus: cause the money talks
I?m telling you money talks
I know it do money talks
(And it often just says ?good-bye? (c)
