Lyrics

I wish I was a millionare
I'd play rock music and grow long hair
Tell you boys
I'd buy a newrolls-royce

Pretty people come to me
I'd give 'em all the third degree
I'd give 'em satin sheets
And keep 'em off the streets....
Hallaleulah - what's it to ya'?
Praise the lord and pass the mescaline
Praise jehovah
And he'll come over
As soon as you see me
Boogie-woogie across the silver screen....

I hang 'em high I hang 'em low
I put 'em on the ceilings wherever I go
And they swing all the night
From the rafter light

Hallaleulah - I'm gonna sock it to ya
You got your coffee, me, I've got my spanish tea
Praise jehovah - maybe he'll come over
As soon as you see me playin' my calliope

I wish I was a millionare
I'd play rock music and grow long hair
Tell you boys - I'd buy a new rolls-royce
Tell you boys - I'd buy a new rolls-royce
