I got a Ph.D. in how to make ends meet
I graduated from the college in the street
Inflation in the nation don't bother me
Cause I'm a scholar when it comes to the almighty dollar

[Chorus]
Money, money, money, money is...
Money's on my mind
Money, money, money moves me
I even like the money sign

I'm so mean with the green
I make a dollar want to holler
Make a mark want to bark
Make a pound want to frown

Money, money, money, money is...
Money's on my mind

Ain't no such thing as dirty money
The rich folks know what I mean
And money ain't got no smell, let me tell you
How some green can keep you clean

[Chorus]
Money, money, money, money is...
Money's on my mind
Money, money, money moves me
I even like the money sign
So mean with the green
I make a yen want to grin
Make a franc want to clank
Make a twenty look plenty

Money, money, money, money is...
The only thing that's on my mind

I'd rather be well-to-do
Than have to I-O-U
I think my friend, brother Getty would agree
There's only one thing that money can't buy
And that is poverty

[Chorus]
Money, money, money, money is...
Money's on my mind
Money, money, money moves me
I even like the money sign

I'm a stone-cold taker
I'm a piggy-bank shaker
I use every ruse, talking trash
So if you go to my school
You got to learn to this rule:
Don't let your mouth write a check
That your body can't cash
[Chorus]
Money, money, money, money is...
Money's on my mind
Money, money, money moves me
I even like the money sign

I'm so mean with the green
I make a dollar want to holler
Make a mark want to bark
Make a pound want to frown

Money, money, money, money is...
The only thing that's on my mind

My eyes start to blinkin' when I flash on some Lincolns!
My mind start relaxin' when my pocket is full of Jacksons!
