You Know, The Landlord Rang My Front Door Bell--

I Let It Ring For A Long, Long Spell--

I Looked Through The Window, I Peeked Through The Blind,

And Asked Him To Tell Me What Was On His Mind.

He Said, "Money, Honey!

Money, Honey!

Money, Honey,

If You Wanna Get Along With Me."



I Was Cleaned And Skinned And So Hard-pressed--

I Called The Woman That I Love The Best--

I Finally Reached My Baby 'bout A Half Past Three--

She Said, "I'd Like To Know What You Want With Me."

I Said, "Money, Honey!

Money, Honey!

Money, Honey,

If You Wanna Get Along With Me."



She Screamed And Said, "What's Wrong With You?

From This Day On, Our Romance Is Through."

I Said, "Tell Me, Baby, Face To Face--

A-how Could Another Man Take My Place?"

She Said, "Money, Honey!

Money, Honey!

Money, Honey,

If You Wanna Get Along With Me."



Well, I Learned My Lesson And Now I Know--

The Sun May Shine And The Wind May Blow--

Women May Come, And The Women May Go,

But Before I Say I Love 'em So,

I Want-- Money, Honey!

Money, Honey!

Money, Honey,

If You Wanna Get Along With Me.

(If You Wanna Get Along) Well, Make Some Money

(If You Wanna Get Along) Well, I Ain't Jivin' You, Honey

(If You Wanna Get Along) You Better Give Up Some Money

If You Wanna Get Along With Me.
