Oh it takes a lot of money to treat my little honey like I want to
Yes it takes a lot of money to treat my little honey like I want to
I'd have to be a movie star and drive a great big Cadillac car
And have a pocket full of money to treat my little honey like I want to

Well I'm so in love with you honey but my banker count sure runs thin
And everytime I get a little money the prices get high again
And it takes a lot of money
[ steel ]
Oh these worn out clothes I'm wearin' they sure are an awful sight
If it wasn't for these bills I'm carryin' I'd be with you every night
But it takes a lot of money
And have a pocket full of money to treat my little honey like I want to
