Lyrics
- IF YOU GOT MONEY IN THE BANK
- DON’T LET YOUR WOMAN DRAW IT OUT
- ‘COS SHE’LL TAKE ALL YOUR MONEY AND THEN
- SHE’LL KICK YOU OUT
- I ONCE HAD MONEY
- AND A FAST CADILLAC CAR
- BUT I MADE A BIG MISTAKE, LET MY BABY KNOW WHERE THEY ARE
- AND SHE TOOK ALL MY POSSESSIONS AND THEN SHE THREW ME OUT
- NOW YOUNG MEN
- HEED MY ADVICE
- I’LL TELL YOU ONCE
- AND I MAY NOT TELL YOU TWICE,
- KEEP AN EYE ON YOUR OLD LADY ANYTIME
- THAT SHE GOES STEPPING OUT
- THERE’S ONLY ONE WOMAN
- THAT I HATE MORE
- YOU KNOW WHO THAT IS?
- WHY THAT’S MY MOTHER-IN-LAW
- MY BABY’S PRETTY FAST
- BUT HER MOTHER’S EVEN FASTER ON THE DRAW
- MY BABY, MY LITTLE BABY
- I BELIEVE SHE’S GONNA JUMP AND SHOUT
- WHEN I WALK DOWN TO THE BANK
- AND DRAW ALL MY MONEY OUT
- WELL, IF YOU GOT MONEY IN THE BANK
- DON’T LET YOUR WOMAN DRAW IT OUT
- ‘COS SHE’LL TAKE ALL YOUR MONEY AND THEN
- SHE’LL KICK YOU OUT
