the valentine brothers - money's too tight (to mention) lyrics
[verse 1]
i’ve been laid off from work
my rent is due
my kids all need
brand new shoes
so i went to the bank
to see what they could do
they said son look like bad luck’s
gotta hold on you
[chorus]
money’s too tight to mention
i can’t get an unemployment extension
money’s too tight to mention
[verse 2]
i went to my brother
to see what he could do
he said brother like to help you
but i’m unable to
so i called on my father, father
oh, mighty father
he said
[chorus]
money’s too tight to mention
oh money, money, money, money, money
money’s too tight to mention
i can’t even qualify for my pension
[verse 3]
were talking about reaganomics
oh lord down in the congress
they’re p-ssing all kinds of bills
from down on capitol hill, now they’re telling me
[chorus]
money’s too tight to mention (cut-backs!)
oh money, money, money, money
money’s too tight to mention
dinero, money
[verse 3]
i’m working nine to five
five days a week
even forty hours i’m on my feet
i don’t make enough
to survive
i need to [?]
m-o-n-e-y
they’re talking ’bout “we’re in recession”
when they know the world is in a depression
now what are we all to do
when the money’s got a hold on you?
[chorus]
said money’s too tight to mention
money’s too tight
oh money, oh money, oh
money’s too tight to mention
money’s too tight (can’t get an unemployment extension)
too tight to mention
money’s too tight to mention
money’s too tight
money’s too tight to mention
money’s too tight
too tight to mention
money’s too tight to mention
money’s too tight
