drifters - money honey lyrics
you know, the landlord rang my front door bell–
i let it ring for a long, long spell–
i looked through the window, i peeked through the blind,
and asked him to tell me what was on his mind.
he said, “money, honey!
money, honey!
money, honey,
if you wanna get along with me.”
i was cleaned and skinned and so hard-pressed–
i called the woman that i love the best–
i finally reached my baby ’bout a half past three–
she said, “i’d like to know what you want with me.”
i said, “money, honey!
money, honey!
money, honey,
if you wanna get along with me.”
she screamed and said, “what’s wrong with you?
from this day on, our romance is through.”
i said, “tell me, baby, face to face–
a-how could another man take my place?”
she said, “money, honey!
money, honey!
money, honey,
if you wanna get along with me.”
well, i learned my lesson and now i know–
the sun may shine and the wind may blow–
women may come, and the women may go,
but before i say i love ’em so,
i want– money, honey!
money, honey!
money, honey,
if you wanna get along with me.
(if you wanna get along) well, make some money
(if you wanna get along) well, i ain’t jivin’ you, honey
(if you wanna get along) you better give up some money
if you wanna get along with me.
