When the Big Money Comes

WHEN THE BIG MONEY COMES

All Of My Life Ive Been Aworkin Hard
With Not A Lot To Show
Lately Im Just Barely Getting By
Paid The Bills And The Rent, Bought A Few Beers
Got Three Dollars Left
Well Its About Enough To Make A Grown Man
Break Down And Cry

But When The Big Money Comes
Ill Buy A Mansion On A Hill
Gonna Drink Champagne And Light Cigars
With Hundred Dollar Bills
Now Im Not Sure Just How Or When
Or Where Its Coming From
But Ill Be Puttin On The Dog
Living High On The Hog
When The Big Money Comes

I Called The Psychic Hotline, Had My Fortune Told
Read My Horoscope
They All Assured Me Wealth Is On The Way
So Ill Keep Myself Busy Makin Plans
For What Im Gonna Do
Cause You Never Know, Tomorrow Just Might Be
My Lucky Day

But When The Big Money Comes
Ill Buy A Mansion On A Hill
Gonna Drink Champagne And Light Cigars
With Hundred Dollar Bills
Now Im Not Sure Just How Or When
Or Where Its Coming From
But Ill Be Puttin On The Dog
Living High On The Hog
When The Big Money Comes

I Might Hit The Jackpot In Vegas
Or Win The State Lottery
Or Maybe Those Folks From The Prize Patrol
Are Drivin Round Lookin For Me
I Might Inherit A Million
From An Uncle I Never Knew
Then Ill Have Enough Of That Old Green Stuff
To Make All My Dreams Come True
