[Intro]

{*Kissing*}

I love you so much, don't ever leave me, I won't let you leave


[Verse 1]

The hoe turned me out, green eyes, had a crush on her

Since 5 years old, met her, fell in love with her

I saved that hoe 'cause she bring more hoes

She major yo, the way she left them other dudes cold

Heartbroken, she walked right out of mad nigga's life

So when I bagged her up right, I had to make her my wife

And I ain't gonna lose her like those other lames did

I keep a stash safe kid, when I proposed it made her face big

She keep me jig, glorifying medallions

Got me in clothes made by Italians, feed me lobster and scallions

Watching her pile on my bed, her body feel stacked

She been around for years, know the hustlers, pimps, and macks

Bankers and diplomats

She the scratch on my back

Her cream I lust, now I got her I don't know how to act

When she not around, I'm heated, 'bout to lay something flat

Know how to treat it, never take for granted, she got me trapped


[Chorus]

(My money, money, money) My bitch is my money

(Ooh, money, you my honey) Money is my bitch

(My money, money, money) Love her 'cause she keep a nigga rich

(Ooh, money, you my honey) But I think she got me pussy whipped

(My money, money, money) My bitch is my money

(Ooh, money, you my honey) Money is my bitch

(My money, money, money) Yeah, that bitch treat me like a trick

(Ooh, money, you my honey) She says without her I can't be rich


[Verse 2]

All the fun we have together, I keep you in my pocket

It's so much of you I share you, and speak to you in private

You got me karats on my wrist

I'm a savage for your kiss

Embarrassed when I'm not with you, I'm off guard

Niggas always expect to see us two together, stable

The best couple they seen since Trump and Marla Maple

Don't need no pre-nup

'Cause when we hump we do it up

Make sure we both will bust a dollar sign nut

Before I got to know you, my life I say was mediocre

Break of day, slinging all night long, fiending to stroke ya

Seeing niggas with you I wasn't happy

Wanted to stick them up to get you, heard you calling for daddy

And gladly I take you as my lawfully wedded wife

Never divorce me, I promise to treat you right

Keep you satisfied, never lie, help you grow

My legal tender, lovely federal reserve note


[Chorus]

(My money, money, money) My bitch is my money

(Ooh, money, you my honey) Money is my bitch

(My money, money, money) Love her 'cause she keep a nigga rich

(Ooh, money, you my honey) But I think she got me pussy whipped

(My money, money, money) My bitch is my money

(Ooh, money, you my honey) Money is my bitch

(My money, money, money) Yeah, that bitch treat me like a trick

(Ooh, money, you my honey) She says without her I can't be rich


[Verse 3]

I won't sell my soul to you

What do I owe to you?

My cars, my house, my flow to you

Screw you, before you

Real niggas said I was cool, now I got you

They envy me 'cause I'm with you

You floss too much

Turn niggas out, one touch

For you, my guns bust

You always said in GOD we trust

It's hard enough to keep counting on you

You cheat with government thugs, got the IRS pounding on you

I think I liked you better when you were illegal

But you had to get professional, musical

Now when we fuck we use prophylactic, hard plastic

Stick you in ATM's, limited cash quick

Said you'd give me luxury, when I asked it

Fucking me, I gave you back shots in ya assets

Promised happiness, but really did nothing for me

I guess bitches like you just grow on trees


[Chorus]

(My money, money, money) My bitch is my money

(Ooh, money, you my honey) Money is my bitch

(My money, money, money) Love her 'cause she keep a nigga rich

(Ooh, money, you my honey) But I think she got me pussy whipped

(My money, money, money) My bitch is my money

(Ooh, money, you my honey) Money is my bitch

(My money, money, money) Yeah, that bitch treat me like a trick

(Ooh, money, you my honey) She says without her I can't be rich

(My money, money, money)

(Ooh, money, you my honey)

(My money, money, money)

(Ooh, money, you my honey)

(My money, money, money) My bitch is my money

(Ooh, money, you my honey) Money is my bitch

(My money, money, money) Yeah, that bitch treat me like a trick

(Ooh, money, you my honey) She says without her I can't be rich
