Lyrics

(D. tracy)

Before we begin, thank you
Thank you, oh thank you, thank you
Thank you

I'm not a bad person, I don't drink and I don't kill
I've got no evil habits and I probably never will
I don't sing like elvis presley, I can't dance like fred astaire
But there's one thing in my favour, (what) I'm a millionaire (that's beautiful)

And I got more money than a horse has hairs
'Cause my rich old uncle died and answered all my prayers
But having all this money is gonna bring me down
If you ain't with me honey to help me spread it around

I could get myself a nose job, I could diet for a year
But I'll never be robert redford, 'cause I'm much too fond of beer
Please don't misunderstand me it's not love I'm trying to buy
It's just I got all this here money and I'm a pretty ugly guy

But I got more money than a horse has hairs
'Cause my rich old uncle died and answered all my prayers
But having all this money is gonna bring me down
If you ain't with me honey to help me spread it around

I don't mind if you love me for my money
If you love me for whatever else I've got
Except for all this stuff I'm alone in fort knox
I don't guess I'm doing all that hot

But I got more money than a horse has hairs
'Cause my rich old uncle died and answered all my prayers
But having all this money is gonna bring me down
If you ain't with me honey to help me spread it around

Hey you, come here babe
Stop crying
Put a quarter in the jukebox
