I Got Money Now

When I was a young buck I tried to be
Liked by everyone, everyone
I tried so hard to be funny and nice
I tried so hard to be sugar and spice
Didn't work for me, got old quickly

But now I'm not losin' sleep at night
'Cause no one's calling me on the telephone
To see if I'm at home 'cause now I've got everything
That I have ever wanted or so it seems
Yeah, so it seems, yeah

You don't have to like me anymore
I've got money now
I don't care what you say about me anymore
I've got money now

When I got a little older, I realized it's all lies
There is no prize, there is no prize
There is no heartache if you can afford
Everything delivered right to your door
Responsibilities, this life is easy

So now the girl with everything how could she complain
'Cause she's got it made, yeah, she's got it made
I don't need to be tucked in at night
Told that everything is gonna be alright
Is gonna be alright 'cause I don't have to fight

You don't have to like me anymore
I've got money now
I don't care what you say about me anymore
I've got money now

I wouldn't trade a dollar for some sense
I wouldn't trade a lifetime for some friends
'Cause I've got everything and all is what it seems
I worked so hard all of my life just to have things I could call mine
So I don't need no love 'cause I have got enough

So now I don't mind bein' alone all the time, it's alright
'Cause I've got money now that's what it's all about
And I'm so busy buyin' things and travelin' the world
I don't have time for friends or family and that's fine with me
So it seems

You don't have to like me anymore
I've got money now
I don't care what you say about me anymore
I've got money now

You don't have to like me anymore
I've got money now
I don't care what you say about me anymore
'Cause I've got money now
