Walkin' down the main drag one night
I met a fine chick who felt just right
She stopped when I flashed my roll
I told her she could have all of my gold
(Da-da-da-dah) She turned around
(Da-da-da-dah) And with a frown
(Da-da-da-dah) She said, "This ain't
No circus and I don't need a clown"
Your cash ain't nothin' but trash
Your cash ain't nothin' but trash
Your cash ain't nothin' but trash
So, it ain't no need in your hangin' around
Just to make a hit with that chick
I tried to get a Cadillac right quick
The man at the place looked so strange
At nine hundred bucks and some change
(Da-da-da-dah) We disagreed
(Da-da-da-dah) I tried to plead
(Da-da-da-dah) He said, "I ain't a chicken and I don't need your feed"
Your cash ain't nothin' but trash
Your cash ain't nothin' but trash
Your cash ain't nothin' but trash
Baby, you're crawlin' way past your speed
(Da-da-da-dah)
(Da-da-da-dah)
(Da-da-da-dah)
(Da-da-da-dah)
Walkin' and countin' my bucks
A man with a gun said, "Hands up"
I tried to get away, but too slow
He clocked me and took all of my dough
(Da-da-da-dah) I heard him shout
(Da-da-da-dah) As he cut out
(Da-da-da-dah) "You ain't lost nothin', what's your cryin' about?"
Your cash ain't nothin' but trash
Your cash ain't nothin' but trash
Your cash ain't nothin' but trash
And he took my watch and I passed out
I woke up in the arms of a big cop
Police station, a next stop
The judge swung his fist down, plunk, plunk
"Twenty dollar fine 'cause you're drunk
(Da-da-da-dah) Dig up the dough
(Da-da-da-dah) And you can go"
(Da-da-da-dah) All I had was a buffalo
Your cash ain't nothin' but trash
Your cash ain't nothin' but trash
Your cash ain't nothin' but trash
But I'm sure gonna get me some more
