Verse 1
Of all of the people
That I used to know
Most never adjusted
To the great big world
Verse 2
I see them lurking in book stores
Working for the Public Radio
Carrying their babies around in a sack on their back
Moving careful and slow
Chorus
It's money that matters
Hear what I say
It's money that matters
In the USA
Bridge
All of these people are much brighter than I
In any fair system they would flourish and thrive
But they barely survive
They eke out a living, they barely survive
Link
When I was a young boy,
Maybe thirteen
I took a hard look around me
And asked what does it mean?
Verse 3
So I talked to my father, and he didn't know
And I talked to my friend and he didn't know
And I talked to my brother and he didn't know
And I talked to everybody that I knew
Chorus
It's money that matters
Now you know that it's true
It's money that matters
Whatever you do
Verse 4
Then I talked to a man
Lived up on the county line
I was washing his car
With a friend of mine
Link
He was a little fat guy
In a red jumpsuit
I said "That looks kind of funny"
He said "I know it does, too"
Verse 5
"But I got a great big house on the hill here
And a great big blonde wife inside it
And a great big pool in my backyard
Another great big pool beside it
Chorus
Sonny it's money that matters,
Hear what I say
It's money that matters
In the USA
It's money that matters
Now you know that it's true
It's money that matters
Whatever you do"
