For the love of money lyrics
by O'Jays



Money, money, money, money
Money!
Money, money, money, money
Money!

Money, money, money, money
Money!
Money, money, money, money
Money!

Money, money, money, money
Money!
Money, money, money, money
Money!

Some people got to have it, hey, hey, hey
Some people really need it
Listen to me y'all, do things, do things, do things, bad things with it

You wanna do things, do things, do things, do things, good things with it, yeah
Aha, talk about cash, money, money
Talk about cash, money, dollarbills, y'all, come on now
Yeah, yeah

(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, oh, 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 that mean, mean, mean, mean
Mean green

Almighty dollar

Talk about, talk about
I know that money is the root of all evil
Do funny things to some people
Give me a nickle, brother, can you spare a dime?
Money can drive some people out of their minds!

(For the love of money) Not good, no good, no good
(For the love of money) Don't sell your soul for the money, aha
(For the love of money) Lay down, lay down, women will

Money is the root of all evil
Do funny things to some people
Give me a nickle, brother, can you spare a dime?
Money can drive some people out of their minds!

(For the love of money) Got to have it, I really need it
(For the love of money) Give it up, give it up, give it up, yeah
(For the love of money) Got to have it, some people really need it

(For the love of money) Give me, give me, give me cash money
(For the love of money) Money, money
(For the love of money) Give me, give me, give me, give me

(For the love of money)
(For the love of money) How many things have I heard you say?
(For the love of money) Don't let it, don't let it, don't let money rule you

(For the love of money) How many things have I heard you say?
(For the love of money) Don't let it, don't let it, don't let, don't let money fool you
(For the love of money) No, no, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

People, don't let money, don't let money change you
All mighty dollar
'Cause it will keep on changing (Yeah), changing up your mind
(It'll keep on, keep on) Changing (Yeah), changing up your mind

(Tell the truth, tellin' y'all) All that money
(Oho!) Don't let money change you, all mighty dollar
(I'm tellin' y'all) Don't let money

Don't let money change you, all mighty dollar
(Yes, 'cause it'll keep on) Changing (Yeah), changing up your mind
Changing (Yeah), changing up your mind
