Yeah, well, I make money, money don't make me
And that's the way I am and it's plain to see
You get a ride for yourself, ho
Can't put you on a shelf
Live and let live, you know it's plain enough
There ain't a dollar in the world to make me change my stuff
Now I've let lots of men who told me when
To finally make their first million
Gonna live like kings, gonna do everything
Gonna fly to pretty women
If they know how to do it, why not get to it
'Stead of waiting all their life?
'Cause your life is only doing what you think is worth pursuing
'Stead of waiting all the time
Well, I make money, money don't make me
And that's the way I am and it's plain to see
You get a ride for yourself, ho
Can't put you on a shelf
Live and let live, you know it's plain enough
There ain't a dollar in the world to make me change my stuff
Now you never find the end in sittin' and pretendin'
You're gonna do it sometime
Keep a-knockin' on wood, doin' exactly what you should
Trying to save ten cents
You keep buildin' up a house so you can retire
To your castle in the blue
But you find it's all behind and it's probably slipped your mind
And you're too pooped to do
Well, I make money, money don't make me
And that's the way I am and it's plain to see
You get a ride for yourself, ho
Can't put you on a shelf
Live and let live, you know it's plain enough
There ain't a dollar in the world to make me change my stuff
Yeah, well I make money, money don't make me
And that's the way I am and it's plain to see
You get a ride for yourself, ho
Can't put you on a shelf
Live and let live, you know it's plain enough
There ain't a dollar in the world to make me change my stuff
