[Verse 1] I count the hours in my hand Watch the bills pile up again Every coin feels like a plan Every plan feels like a bend I work the day and work the night To make a future out of now But the finish line keeps moving And I still don’t know how [Pre-Chorus] If I save it, will it stay? If I spend it, slip away? If I hold it too tight It can break in my hands tonight [Chorus] Money, money, don’t let go I need you more than I show Money, money, stay with me I’m trying hard to be free Work it, turn it, make it grow Still not enough, I know Money, money, don’t let go I need enough to retire on [Verse 2] They say buy in, trust the rise Take the risk and close my eyes But one wrong move, one thin day And it all can wash away Unemployment line looks long Feels like hope could be a loan If I chase the chance too hard I might lose the ground I own [Pre-Chorus] If I save it, will it stay? If I spend it, slip away? If I hold it too tight It can break in my hands tonight [Chorus] Money, money, don’t let go I need you more than I show Money, money, stay with me I’m trying hard to be free Work it, turn it, make it grow Still not enough, I know Money, money, don’t let go I need enough to retire on [Bridge] What if safety costs my future? What if profit costs my sleep? What if all I’ve built in daylight Falls before I can keep? I don’t want gold I want a door That still stays open When I’m poor [Final Chorus] Money, money, don’t let go I need you more than I show Money, money, stay with me I’m trying hard to be free Work it, turn it, make it grow Still not enough, I know Money, money, don’t let go I need enough to retire on Money, money, don’t let go I’m doing all I know Money, money, stay with me Before I end up on that line
