Long green, woah, the root of evil, yeah
Woah, long green, yeah
Oh, the root of evil
I work every day, I work for my pay
When quitting time comes, I'm ready to say
I don't know why I do it that way
But long green, hey, hey, hey, hey, the root of evil, yeah
Yeah, long green now, is the root of evil, uh, yeah
They say the best things in life are free
Ah, child, you can't convince me
There's one thing I'd like you to see
And that's the sweat which pours from me
But long green, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, the root of evil, yeah
Woah, long green now, now, you know, the root of evil, oh
Hey, ow, work it on out one more time, let's give it to 'em, yeah
Working pain now, sweating strain
Working pain now, sweating strain
Working pain now, sweating strain, how you doing?
Yeah, working pain now, sweating strain

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
But long green, yeah, oh, I'd like to, oh, the root of evil, oh
Oh, wait a minute, long green, wait on it
Yeah, the root of evil, yeah, alright
I make nickels, dimes, quarters, traveler's cheques
Anything I can spend, I'll take it if I don't have to make it
Yeah, yeah
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
