It's great to be rich and a doggone shame to be poor
It's great to be rich and a doggone shame to be poor
It's a low dirty deal when your woman don't want you no more

I tried to please her but it only made her mad
I tried to please her but it only made her mad
She's done strip me and took everything I had

Now what you gonna do with a woman like that
Who takes all your money, yes, and leave you flat?
It's great to be rich and a doggone shame to be poor
It's a low dirty deal when your woman don't want you no more

Now it was money in the morning and money every night
If I didn't have no money, she was ready to fight
It's great to be rich and a doggone shame to be poor
It's a low dirty deal when your woman don't want you no more
