[Verse 1] Let them take the money Hide it in some distant room We were never on their list We were never in their proof Let them guard their silver Lock it in a foreign land We were always trading stories We were always lending hands [Chorus] Let them take the money Hide away their goods Leave the world behind them We’ll be doing good We’ll be doing good (oh oh) Let them keep on running From everything they should We’ll be standing right here And we’ll be doing good [Verse 2] Let them chase the numbers Stack their towers to the sky We got beans on boiling water We got laughter We got time They can own the hillside Name a star after their name We got gardens in the gravel We got joy they cannot claim [Chorus] Let them take the money Hide away their goods Leave the world behind them We’ll be doing good We’ll be doing good (hey!) Let them keep on running From everything they should We’ll be standing right here And we’ll be doing good [Bridge] We got open doors We got second plates We got songs that carry More than what they take Let them lose their sleep Over what they hoard We got hearts like lanterns And they’re burning warm [Chorus] Let them take the money Hide away their goods Leave the world behind them We’ll be doing good We’ll be doing good (oh oh) Let them keep on running From everything they should We’ll be standing right here And we’ll be doing good We’ll be doing good
