They're shutting off the phone, cutting off the gas
I can't afford to heat, the water in my bath
I'm barely getting by, I'm hanging by a string

It's a money thing

I could sell my body, I could sell my *****
I could sell my blood, with the money that I earn
I could buy my baby a little plastic ring

It's a money thing and I got none
It's a money thing and I got none
It's a money thing, I gotta make some money

I stare into the windows of couple filled cafe's
The men all act like winners because they all can pay
How can I compete with what they're offering

It's a money thing and I got none
It's a money thing and I got none
It's a money thing, I gotta get some money

I found a cheap date but she wasn't so cheap
I found a cheap date but she wasn't so cheap
I found a cheap date but she wasn't so cheap, ****

It's so disheartening, the cash is always king
Happiness and love just don't mean anything
I'll never have enough, I'll never have enough

It's a money thing and I got none
It's a money thing and I got none
It's a money thing, I gotta make some money

I found a cheap date but she wasn't so cheap
(It's a money thing)
I found a cheap date but she wasn't so cheap
(It's a money thing)
I found a cheap date but she wasn't so cheap
(Money)
