Money talks, it'll tell you a story
Money talks, says strange things Money talks very loudly You'd be surprised the friends you can buy with small change They say it's the root of all evil They say gold is the king Money talks, you'd better believe it All that gold don't mean a thing Rich people, hear those pockets jingle Spare change, hear the down-and-outers cry Money talks, tip-toe up behind you Steal what they can, off the cuff or on the sly Money talks Money talks Money talks Money talks |

Hard times is about to get me
Hard times, they hurt my hands Hard times, it took my woman Hard times lead her to a richer man Caught in the middle of some fool's advice If you work real hard, you get a piece of the pie Can't you hear that laughing No, the jokes don't end Consider my resources, it's a hard time to eat Hard times, it's rough all around Hard times, it's all gonna end Hard times, just thinking about it Consider my resources, it's a hard time to eat Hard times Hard times Hard times |

One drink of whisky, one drink of gin
One drink of vodka and I told my friends Things don't seem quite like they used to As reality leaves, so does the blues One toke of reefer, a little cocaine One shot of morphine and things begin to change Things don't seem quite like they used to As reality leaves, so does the blues Up around here, back down again I've been up on top, don't bother, my friend Things don't seem quite like they used to As reality leaves, so does the blues |

Well, you can talk to the governor, talk to a prince Talk to a preacher or the president Some people lie, some people lie and deceive When they say one thing, they mean something else completely I had me a woman, love me to the end Two days later she was with another man Some people lie, some people lie and deceive But sometime later, they'll get theirs, yes sirree Well, I bought me a new car, a lemon, no doubt The wheels fell off, the salesman he was out People lie, people lie and deceive When they say one thing, they mean something else completely The bottom line, you understand When some people talk, you can't believe what they're saying People lie, people lie and deceive When they say one thing, they mean something else completely |

I've got teardrops in my tequila
I've got teardrops in my tequila Got Colorado, not enchiladas, on my mind Ain't it cold as hell in Santa Fe Makes me shiver to my toes Things ain't going well in Santa Fe, oh no Make them two tacos to go, senor I've got teardrops in my tequila I've got teardrops in my tequila Got Colorado, not enchiladas, on my mind Goodbye, see you later Santa Fe Then the freeway will take me home Where the air is clean, The open fields, the meadow green I won't be so all alone I've got teardrops in my tequila I've got teardrops in my tequila Got Colorado, not enchiladas, on my mind Goodbye, see you later Santa Fe |
