I 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 ? looks like bad luck
Got-a hold on you
Chorus:
Money?s too tight to mention
I can?t get an un-em-ploy-ment ex-ten-sion
Money?s too tight to mention
I went to my brother
To see what he could do ?
He said bro-ther like to help you
But I?m unable to
So I called on my fa-ther fa-ther
Oh my fa-ther
He said
Chorus :
Money?s too tight to mention
Oh mo-ney mo-ney mo-ney mon-ey
Mo-ney?s too tight to mention
I can?t even qual-i-fy for my pension
We talk a-bout rea-gan-on-ics
Oh lord down in the con-gress
They?re passing all kinds ? of bills
From down cap-it-ol hill ? (we?ve tried them)
Chorus:
Money?s too tight to mention
(spoken) cut-back!
Mo-ney mo-ney mo-ney mon-ey
We?re talk-in? a-bout mon-ey mon-ey
We?re talk-in? a-bout mon-ey mon-ey
We?re talk-in? ?bout the dollar bill
Now what are we all to do
When the mon-ey?s got a hold on you?
Mo-ney?s too tight to mention
Oh mon-ey mon-ey mon-ey mon-ey
Mo-ney?s too tight to mention
A-mero ? mon-ey oh yeah
We?re talk-in? a-bout mon-ey mon-ey
We?re talk-in? a-bout mon-ey mon-ey
We?re talk-in? a-bout mon-ey mon-ey
We?re talk-in? a-bout mon-ey mon-ey...
