[Verse 1]
With a hat on my head and smile on my face
I was jogging by the Rolls Royce place
And in the window was a deluxe automobile
With a leather interior, all full-powered
Run two hundred miles an hour
With a hand-made, inlaid, solid gold steering wheel
Well, I waltzed into the showroom floor
Kicked the tires and I slammed the door
And a salesman came by, burgundy pants and white shoes
He said: "Boy, get away from that car
I've seen you come in and I know what you are
And if you're bettin' to buy them wheels, I'm bettin' you lose"

[Chorus]
'Cause you're talkin' big monеy, I mean big money
And you look like a fivе-and-dimer to me
If you want my help or need my skill
Just write it all out on a $100 bill
'Cause big money's what you need

[Verse 2]
Well, I boogied on past the Hula Hut
And I whooped up the alley for a little shortcut
When a guy jumped out of the doorway with a gun
He said: "Stop right there, don't you make a sound
If you value your life, don't you turn around
And lay all your foldin' money on the ground, son"
I said: "With the IRS and alimony
State of rent and price of bologni
I don't have one foldin' dollar, I'm just poor folk"
He said: "Well here then, you better take this ten
'Cause my partner's working at the other end
And he sure will be mad if he finds you're broke"
[Chorus]
'Cause he's talkin' big money, I mean big money
And you look like a five-and-dimer to me
If you want my help or need my skill
Just scribble it out on a $100 bill
'Cause big money's what you need

[Verse 3]
Well, I was comin' up short and missin' the point
So I stopped off in this little joint
For something tall and cool to ease my mind
And I sat this lady at the bar
As lovely as a movie star
She filled out that "gimme more grease" just fine
I said: "Sweetheart, I'm an expert lover
I lock my dog and I love my mother
Marry me, and see things you've never seen"
She said: "When I marry it'll be for love
And what I love is that folding stuff
You won't see me in white without that green"

[Chorus]
And I'm talkin' big money, honey, big money
And you look like a five-and-dimer to me
If you want my help or need my skill
Just write it all out on a $100 bill
'Cause big money's what you need
[Outro]
I don't need just your green back dollar
'Cause I'll also take the check or credit card
