A Man With Money
I want to be
A man with money
With a big fancy car
and a sweet heart honey
A fat cigar
Dipped in Bacardi
My mansion large
With enormous parties
I want to see the world
From my private jet
While buying pearls
With the cash I get
I’ll never be broke
In need or hunger
I’ll just live in hope
A money monger
My nights will be grand
My days will be fast
Just spending away
And counting my cash
Then again there are things
That money can’t buy
And heaven won’t bring
Those living the lie
Because no one loves
Someone selfish inside
I could be alone
Swallowing my own pride
But in the end
Maybe I have the life
With a few good friends
And just getting by
