Lyrics
Cash is King
Words and music by The Woodmen
Verse One
Shock me, Shake me,
Never gonna break me
You push me, pull me
You're never gonna fool me, no.
You wanna get on board?
You wanna catch this plane?
Well, if you're gonna live large
Take the "Money Train", yeah yeah
Verse Two
(Well you can)
Shake it, bake it
You're never gonna make it
(yes you can) wave it, crave it
You're never gonna save it, no no no
Say "We can live on love"
Are you tryin' to be funny?
'Cause if you wanna live large
It's all about the money
Chorus
Cash is King!
Cash is King!
You want the joy life brings?
Then Cash . . . is everything.
Lead Guitar, w/ BGV chant
("Ooh, cha ching, Cash is King")
Bridge
Say "we can live on love"
And "all you need is your health"
Man, your head's in the clouds
Yes, you're just foolin' yourself
It's just the way that it is
And like the Big Man says
Girl, if you wanna live large
Yes, you gotsta have the bread
Chorus
Cash is King (ooh, cha, ching)
Cash is King (cash is king)
When it's about the "brass ring" (Ooh, cha, ching)
Then cash . . . (ha,ha,ha ) is everything
Cash is King! (Cash is King!)
I said Cash is King! (Cash is King!)
When it's about the "bling-bling" (Cash is King!)
Ooo yeah, then cash . . . is just the thing ... Cash!
