[ Featuring the Pips, Gladys Knight ]
Well
It don't bother, it don't bother me
Money is the root of all evil
(Evil is the root of most people)
Evil is the root of most people, yeah
(I don't know
Get good, get good)
Money is the key to Hollywood
Expensive cars and fancy homes
Out here on the Strip, everybody's hip
Nearly everybody stays strong
Everybody knew everything
Just as long as you got some bread
The ladies and the gents perk their compliments
And they work right on your head
(Money is the root of all evil)
Money, money, money, money, money
(Evil is the root of most people)
Evil is the root of most people
(I don't know
Get good, get good)
Money is the key to politics
And the ganster with the gun in his hand
People turning tricks just to get some kicks
And it's written all over the land
We all need a little money
It's so, so sad, but true
Prices are so high, costs too much to die
It's the last thing that we do
(Money is the root of all evil)
Money is the root of all evil
(Evil is the root of most people)
Evil is the root of most people, yeah
(I don't know
Get good, get good)
Sure don't bother me
Money is the root of all evil
Money is the root of all evil
(Evil is the root of most people)
Evil is the root of most people, yeah
(I don't know) I don't know
(Get good, get good)
You said it
I said
Money is the root of all evil
(Evil is the root of most people)
Evil is the root of most people
(I don't know
Get good, get good)
