LIFE'S BETTER WITH MONEY
Words and Music by Bruce Dallas

Woke up early this morning, jumped right out of bed

Been thinking about my future, I’ve been running in the red

I love the work I’m doing, so far I’m getting by

But I could use more money, to help smooth out the ride

Sometimes I wonder if I should, go take a nine to five

Cause I’ve been running out of what I need to stay alive

CHORUS

I said M-O-N-E-Y, life’s better with money

I said M-O-N-E-Y, can’t live without money

There’s got to be a way to turn this music into bucks

It’s being in the right place, having a whole lot of luck
 

I know I’m not the only one, working day to day

Searching for the secret, to escalate my pay

I’d like to have a new car, or travel round the world

Go out and buy a pretty dress, for my favorite girl

My credit’s getting shaky, the rent’s been running late

The bills are stacking up, dear God! You know I need a break 

CHORUS

I said M-O-N-E-Y, life’s better with money

I said M-O-N-E-Y, can’t live without money

We need a little leverage, an opportunity

Cause living on the edge ain’t the way it’s supposed to be
 

Woke up this morning, held you in my bed

Realized that you’re the best thing that a man like me could have

You understand the struggle, you know about the strife

You tell me to be patient, it’s all a part of life

I know that it’s been said that money can’t buy love

But having more to spend on you, is what I’m thinking of 

CHORUS

I said M-O-N-E-Y, life’s better with money

I said M-O-N-E-Y, can’t live without money

Life could be much easier, If I had more to spend

I’d lay some on my lover, I’d slip some to my friends

Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes, life’s better with money
