jimmy buffett - spending money lyrics
by: jimmy buffett and mac mc-n-lly
(whistling)
now i’m not talking ’bout excessive greed
the kind that puzzled the scribes and pharisees
i don’t worship it like a golden calf
but change in my pocket is always good for a laugh
seen it brighten up the eyes of a child
it even makes the dalai lama smile
it’s no relation to the meaning of life
it’s a dang fool husband doesn’t spring for his wife
a little spending money
money to burn
money that you did not necessarily earn
rainy days seem to wind up sunny
long as you got a little spending money
i got no financial conscience
can’t worry where it went
a lasting treasure a moment of pleasure
worth in every cent
coin or paper, silver or gold
all denominations nouveaux or old
can’t have a turkey without oyster dressing
it’s the root of all evil the sum of your blessings
don’t need no armored car or time-locked vault
don’t need a shaker full, just a few grains of salt
you may get by looking good and being funny
but life’s a little less restrained with a little
spending money
money to burn
money that you did not necessarily earn
rainy days seem to wind up sunny
long as you got a little spending money
long as you got a little spending money
oh give me some spending money
