The Money Song
Composer(s): Harold Rome
Performer(s): Dean Martin & Jerry Lewis



If you got it you don't need it
If you need it you don't got it
You don't get shame on you
Funny, funny, funny, what money can do

Them that have it get more of it
Less they need it the more they love it
And it sticks to them like glue
Funny, funny, funny, what money can do

Ask the rich man he'll confess
Money can't buy happiness
Ask the poor man he don't doubt
But he'd rather be miserable with than without

If you spend it please be wiser
If you save it you're a miser
You don't want it you're cuckoo
Funny, funny, funny, what money can do

Jerry Lewis: La La Money
Dean Martin: Oh, shut up Jerry, what are you doing?

JL: Folks will give it to you gladly

DM: Funny, funny, funny, what money can do

DM: Birds don't got it, still they sing
JL: Eating winds up on the wing
DM: Ideal lives some folks affirm
