"He's a sweet, soul, brother!" Money, money, money, money! [Repeat: x2] "You make me feel so goooood!" Money, money, money, money! Money, money, money, money! [Repeat: x3] [Chorus: Mr. Kane] In the world of change, here I am Trying to have some things So what you need is some game, to get your money man Oh baby, in the world of paper, paper [Snoop Dogg] Thinking of a master plan Cause ain't nothing but sweat inside my hand So I dig into my pockets, all my money is spent So I dig deeper, but still coming up with lint So I, start my mission, leave my residence Thinking how can I get some dead presidents I need money, I used to see a stick-up kid So I think of all the devious things I did I used to roll up, this is a hold up, ain't nothing funny Stop smiling, cause still don't nothing move but the money Cause now I've learned to earn cause I'm righteous I feel great, so maybe I might just Search fo' a 9 to 5, if I strive Then maybe I'll stay alive So I walk up the street, whistling this Feeling out of place cause man do I miss A pen and a paper, a stereo, a tape of Me and Warren G, and a big fat plate of Chicken wings, cause that's my favorite thing But without no money man that shit's a dream Cause I don't like to dream about getting paid So I dig into the books of the rhymes that I've made Soon as I bust 'em see if I got pull I hit the DoggHouse, cause I'm paid in full [echoes] [Chorus] Money, money, money, money! [Repeat: x3] [Mr. Kane: x2] Well Well Oh baby Well Well, oh baby Oh baby
