I been laid off from work my rent is due
My kids all need brand new shoes
So I went to the bank to see what they could do
They said son looks like bad luck got a hold on you

Moneys too tight to mention
I cant get an unemployment extension
Moneys too tight to mention

I went to my brother to see what he could do
He said brother Id like to help but Im unable to
So called on my father, father
Almighty father, he said

Moneys too tight to mention
Oh money money money money
Moneys too tight to mention
I cant even qualify for my pension

Were talking bout reaganomics
Oh lord down in the congress
Theyre passing all kinds of bills
From up there on capitol hill, weve tried it

Moneys too tight to mention
Oh money money money money
Moneys too tight to mention
Cutbacks!

Were talking bout the dollar bill
And that old man whos over the hill
Now what are we all to do
When moneys got a hold on you

Moneys too tight etc.

Were talking bout money money
Were talking bout money money
