Songs about money - got one?
This is an old Furry Lewis tune and possibly the best pick up line ever...

A lot of folks think this is a "pro-money" song because of the prominent use of certain sections of it in a certain TV show. But if you listen to all of the lyrics, it is about the dangers of loving money too much.

Money, money, money
I work all night, I work all day, to pay the bills I have to pay
Ain't it sad
And still there never seems to be a single penny left for me
That's too bad
In my dreams I have a plan
If I got me a wealthy man
I wouldn't have to work at all, I'd fool around and have a ball
Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world

As long as we're talking about Money, let's not forget the Taxman. Here's George and Eric Clapton reminding us all that the Ides of April are fast approaching....
