Money, money, money, money, money (x6) 
Some people got to have it 
Some people really need it 
Listen to me y'all, do things 
Do things, do bad things with it 
You wanna do things, do things
Do things, good things with it 
Talk about cash money, money 
Talk about cash money 
Dollar bills, yall 

For the love of money 
People will steal from their mother 
For the love of money 
People will rob their own brother 
For the love of money 
People can't even walk the street 
Because they never know 
Who in the world they're gonna beat 
For that lean, mean, mean green 
Almighty dollar, money 

For the love of money 
People will lie, Lord, they will cheat 
For the love of money 
People don't care who they hurt or beat 
For the love of money 
A woman will sell her precious body 
For a small piece of paper 
It carries a lot of weight 
Call it lean, mean, mean green 

Almighty dollar 

I know money is the root of all evil 
Do funny things to some people 
Give me a nickel, brother can you spare a dime 
Money can drive some people out of their minds 

Got to have it, I really need it 
How many things have I heard you say 
Some people really need it 
How many things have I heard you say 
Got to have it, I really need it 
How many things have I heard you say 
Lay down, lay down, a woman will lay down 
For the love of money 
All for the love of money 
Don't let, don't let, don't let money rule you 
For the love of money 
Money can change people sometimes 
Don't let, don't let, don't let money fool you 
Money can fool people sometimes 
People, don't let money, don't let money change you 
It will keep on changing, changing up your mind
