Lyrics
If I Had Money by Mark "Buc" Williams
(copyright 2009 ASCAP)
I was taught not to rely
On anyone else for getting by
If you don't work you should not eat
It don't take much to make ends meet
Still I can't help but think about
All the things that I've been doing without
If fame and fortune were to come my way
I've got a list of things I'd like to do someday
(Chorus)
(Well)I wouldn't be
Living where I live
Or driving what I drive
I'd own a big white house
With lots of furniture inside
I'd have an in ground pool
Like the ones in L.A.
A fenced in yard
Where my dogs could play
If I had money
I've never been the type of man
To be ashamed of who I am
I'm not ungrateful for what I've got
But I sure like to find me that golden pot
Until I do I'll go on living my life
Raising my kids and loving my wife
With one eye open, hoping to see
A long shot chance at opportunity
(Chorus)
Then I wouldn't be
Working day and night
Trying to get ahead
I'd have a full time maid
Making up my bed
I'd have a Leer jet plane
A condo in San Juan
Sit in a whirlpool bath
Eating filet mignon
If I had money
(Musical Ride)
There's no need to worry, no need to be blue
I'll always get by, I'll always make do
But why use milk when there's plenty of cream
Guess I'll keep on chasing that American dream
Then I wouldn't be livin' where I live
Or drivin' what I drive
I'd own a big white house
With lots of furniture inside
I'd have an in ground pool
Like the ones in L.A.
A fenced in yard
Where my dogs could play
No I wouldn't be
working day and night
Trying to get ahead
I'd have a full time maid
Making up my bed
I'd have a Leer jet plane
A condo in San Juan
Sit in a whirlpool bath
Eating filet mignon
If I had money
If I had money
If I had money
