I'm always dreamin' 'bout my baby
Rent is due, I'm slipping on the job
No time to think about survival
Push for the cash ain't in my heart

And there's nothing more that I'm living for
Than you baby, ow my baby
In this crazy world there is just one girl
It's you baby, you're my baby

[Chorus]
Money tight don't feel right
Richest man has no fight all alone
Material things don't matter
If your heart don't get that patter in your bones
Money's tight with me
Your love's all I need

Ain't got the time for superstition
Can't roll the dice and win your heart
When it's love it's strictly business
And once you cheat, it falls apart
Now I live each day knowing love will pay
With you baby, ow my baby
Though my pocket's bare, you are always there
For me baby, you're my baby

[Chorus]
Money tight don't feel right
Richest man has no fight all alone
Material things don't matter
If your heart don't get that patter in your bones
Money's tight with me
Your love's all I need

[Bridge]
Money (money, money, money, money)
Money tight for me
Money
Money tight for me

[Vamp]
Money tight don't feel right
Richest man has no fight all alone
Material things don't matter
If your heart don't get that patter in your bones
Money, money tight for me
Money, money tight for me
