Won't buy you love Or happiness Won't buy you love Or happiness (Money) Won't buy you love (Money) Or happiness (Money) Won't buy you love (Money) Or happiness
So many people that I know (they're strugglin') So many places that I go (the same) It's just another day By any kind or way They have got to get some of that mighty cold cash (gotta get mighty cold cash)
Now there are others who love to live it up They spend in every way (every single way) The only problem is To keep this life of bliss They have got to chase that dollar or it won't last (chase that dollar, or it won't last)
Where do your priorities lie? (where do they lie) Your wealth won't by (won't get you by) True love's the key to life and happiness There's better things to do With what He's given you Invest your time in God and not the
Chorus: Money Won't buy you happiness You'll find that your success It won't buy you love Money Won't buy you happiness You'll find that your success It won't buy you love
Please don't misunderstand me (oh no please don't misunderstand me) There's so much money can do (for you) But it's so distracting The problems attracting Now when you let your money take ahold of you (let your money take ahold of you)
We spend like there will be no tomorrow (no tomorrow) It happens everyday (every single day) Success will only come Once we have learned to trust Leave it, let it 'lone, let God take full complete control (leave it, let it 'lone, let God take full complete control)
What (Hey) we are dealing with (Hey) Is lack of faith in Him (Hey) That he will supply our every need Just wait on the Lord (Just wait on Him) And what you're lookin' for Will be there when you need it, know that
Repeat Chorus
There's a cancer in the nation, a disease of deprivation It's the hunger for the power, it's a capitalist sensation It disguises all the glitter, makes it look as fine as honey But the way that you can spot it is a greedy taste for money
Is it really, really all that you're about, is money? Can you really, really ever do without the money? If it's gonna be the reason for the strife, the money? Gotta see that there is more to livin' life than money
Don't get me wrong it's not the money or the power Or the things that you acquire that oppose a man's salvation But when you constantly pursue, it is now controlling you You are headed for some trouble and temptation Some people crave it, others use it, in the struggle they abuse it They believe that with it they can buy their dreams But they would quickly realize if they open up their eyes Is that there's more to having money than it seems It's just a dirty piece of paper, many colors, different labels Some coins that you can barter and exchange But if you let it, it can hurt you, it can make your friends desert you 'Cause you're values have been totally rearranged
Is it really, really all that you're about, is money? (Is it really all that you're about?) Can you really, really ever do without the money? If it's gonna be the reason for the strife, the money? (Don't let it, don't let it be the reason) Gotta see that there is more to livin' life than money
