Lyrics
The grass is greener on
The other side of the fence
got worries ?bout money
I?m strung-out, I?m tense
I wanna relax atop
A big pile of cash
But I?m buried under debt,
IOUs out my ass
Gotta live the dream
I see on TV
Big house, fast car,
Steaks, not Mickey D?s
Tired of my jalopy
When I drive I hide
I wanna roll proud
In a pimped out ride
chorus
I wanna be rich,
That?s what I ache for
See I?ve been poor,
I gotta make more
Rich,
That?s what I ache for
See I?ve been poor,
I gotta make more
So I?m heading down the road
To my big money dream
I got my blinders on,
It ain?t as hard as seems
chorus
I wanna be rich,
That?s what I ache for
See I?ve been poor,
I want that no more
Rich,
That?s what I ache for
See I?ve been poor,
I gotta make more
Bridge
Yeah, there?s honor in labor
in a job well done
But I just want a big house
With a pool in the sun
Don?t tell me to get
my priorities straight
I?m straight now and headed towards
My estate
chorus
I wanna be rich,
That?s what I ache for
See I?ve been poor,
I want to make more
Rich,
That?s what I ache for
See I?ve been poor,
I gotta make more
