Money Ain’t a Thang Songtext
von JAY‐Z

Ugh, ugh (uh-huh, uh-huh)
So So Def
Yeah, yeah

In the Ferrari or Jaguar, switchin′ four lanes
With the top down screamin' out, "Money ain′t a thang"
Bubble hard in the double R, flashin' the rings
With the window cracked, holla back, money ain't a thang
Jigga, I don′t like it if it don′t gleam-gleam
And to hell with the price 'cause the money ain′t a thang
Put it down hard for my dogs that's locked in the bing
When you hit the bricks, new whips, money ain′t a thang (come on)

Y'all wanna floss wit us (come on)
′Cause all across the board, we burn it up (yeah)
Drop a little paper, baby toss it up
Slackin' on your pimpin', turn it up
See the money ain′t a thang


I flex the Rol′, sign a check for yo' hoe
Jigga′s style is love, X and O
Save all your accolades, just the dough
My game is wide, all lames aside
Tryin' to stay alive, hundred thou′ for the bracelet
Foolish, ain't I? The chain′ll strain ya eye (bling)

Twin platinum gun son, aim for the sky
Ice on my bullet, you die soon as I pull it
Willies wanna rub shoulders, your money's too young
See me when it gets older, your bank account grow up
Mine's is one-zero-zero-zero-zero-oh′d up
Damn near out the rear trunk when I roll up

Multi ′til I close up, it's all basic
I been spendin′ hundreds since they had small faces
Rob your stash house, doubled out down in Vegas
Me and J.D. got it locked crazy
Where you at haters?

In the Ferrari or Jaguar, switchin' four lanes
With the top down screamin′ out, "Money ain't a thang"
Bubble hard in the double R, flashin′ the rings
With the window cracked, holla back, money ain't a thang
Jigga, I don't like it if it don′t gleam-gleam
And to hell with the price ′cause the money ain't a thang
Put it down hard for my dogs that′s locked in the bing
When you hit the bricks, new whips, money ain't a thang


Y′all wanna floss with us
'Cause all across the board, we burn it up (ha)
Drop a little paper, baby toss it up
Slackin′ on your pimpin', turn it up
See the money ain't a thang

My cake thick, I live the life
Eatin′ crab, watchin′ bitches shake shit all night
I make the big moves, do the big things
Take small groups, turn 'em into big names

The big dog with the big chain, frost bit bracelet to match
Cats say I′m the shit man
The type of nigga that you need in yo' crew
Type of dude that will do shit you won′t do, can't do

Get more burn than a candle
Too hot to hold, too much to handle
In the black C-low, he know if she look
She go bye-bye with da-da and I ain′t gotta say no more

I'm The Truth like A.I., got the proof and stay fly
In the safest shit you could never buy, know why?
'Cause I write the songs that the whole world sing
I don′t know ′bout y'all but every night I swing

In the Ferrari or Jaguar, switchin′ four lanes
With the top down screamin' out, "Money ain′t a thang"
Bubble hard in the double R, flashin' the rings
With the window cracked, holla back, money ain′t a thang
Jigga, I don't like it if it don't gleam-gleam
And to hell with the price ′cause the money ain′t a thang
Put it down hard for my dogs that's locked in the bing
When you hit the bricks, new whips, money ain′t a thang

Y'all wanna floss with us (uh-huh)
′Cause all across the board, we burn it up (what?)
Drop a little paper, baby toss it up (yeah)
Slackin' on your pimpin′, turn it up
See, the money ain't a thang

Y'all shit ain′t for real ′til y'all ship a mil′
And ya hit a R&B chick, and she fit the bill (what?)
Said she loved my necklace, started relaxin'
Now, that′s what the fuck I call a chain reaction

Went from wholesome to "Jigga, you awe-some" (ugh)
Baby, I don't play all my jewelry is light grey
Platinum, spend your whole life in the day
What′s down is a bet, roll the dice

Yeah, yeah, let's play
So what you went gold and Rock a Rollie with the ice bezel?
It's gon′ take a lot more to see my level
Where I′m at, your check, you better double that (double that)
And personally your raps is where the trouble at
I'm a Benz bubble cat, leather with the wood grain
In the platinum frame (screaming) "It′s not a game"
(Gleaming) from ear to ear, wrist to wrist, ring and chain
(Even) me and Jay-Z got it locked, crazy

In the Ferrari or Jaguar, switchin' four lanes
With the top down screamin′ out, "Money ain't a thang"
Bubble hard in the double R, flashin′ the rings
With the window cracked, holla back, money ain't a thang
Jigga, I don't like it if it don′t gleam-gleam
And to hell with the price ′cause the money ain't a thang
Put it down hard for my dogs that′s locked in the bing
When you hit the bricks, new whips, money ain't a thang

Y′all wanna floss with us
'Cause all across the board, we burn it up
Drop a little paper, baby toss it up
Slackin′ on your pimpin', turn it up
See, the money ain't a thang

So So Def, Roc-A-Fella, collabo
You know
All we do is rock, rock on
Rock, rock on, rock, rock on
