A Ton of Money Songtext
von Rick Estrin & The Nightcats

You ain′t got no love life, the world's just passin′ you by
Anything good that happens, seem like it happens to the other guy
Drivin' around in your raggedy ride, wearin' your beat-up clothes
Wanna know what your problem is, better ask the man who knows
But you need, you need a
A ton of money, a ton of money
A ton of money, a ton of money
A ton of money, a ton of money
A ton of money, a ton of money


I ain′t sayin′ that is right, but that's just the way that it is
Tryin′ to find you a way to get yours, next man gonna' get his
You can′t get respect on a sole paid check, you just don't qualify
Don′t come sayin' but the name of the game, spell m-o-n-e-y
But you need, you need a
A ton of money, a ton of money
A ton of money, a ton of money
A ton of money, a ton of money
A ton of money, a ton of money

You get nothin' comin′, but please don′t kid yourself
If you weren't born with no silver
Spoon, you gotta′ play the hand you dealt
And the deck is stacked to hold you back, so get ready to go to war
Where all the needy folks and the
Greedy folks, and everbody just grabbin' for
But you need, you need a
A ton of money, a ton of money
A ton of money, a ton of money
A ton of money, a ton of money
A ton of money, a ton of money
