Note: I don't feel confident enough to change anything. I'm just going to put suggestions in parentheses near the printed lyrics.

Intro: E9

Verse 1:
Yeah, yeahh, haah, yeah
You just sold a million got phase out your lady's funky smash
(You just sold a million copies of your latest funky smash)
Now your woman watch she gon'na do without of that spendin' cash
(Now your wonderin' "What's she gonna do with all of that spendin' cash?)
And that lady you've been married tossed a thousand dollars that need you now
(And that lady you've been married to, she says she doesn't need you now)
Since you were slave with jewel, there's a way that peg the town and made the howl

She's takin' what she's got, to get what she can take
She made her evil move, to get what she can make
Let me tell your sign

(No, no, it ain't funny)It ain't funny
(The lady wants your money) the lady wants your money, it's amazing!
(No, no, it ain't funny)Hmmm, It ain't funny
(The lady wants your money) the lady wants your money (money!)

Break

Hey, you don't need to tell us in the whole wide world
gonna be your best friend now
it'll a-gonna funny how out of that money been to lady's from miles around
(Ain't it kinda funny how all of that money brings the ladies from miles around?)
Ain't no lettermen, know they let remain, know they let them take your baby to say
(Ain't gonna let 'em. Ain't gonna let 'em. Ain't gonna let 'em take advantage you say.)
But you can't stop, I can't stop,
away to stop shakin' that guilt thing out of your way
(But you can't stop her, can't stop her when she starts shakin' that good thing over your way)

She give me, watch you're out, to get what she can take
She make her evil (every) move, to get what she can make
Let me tell your sign

(No, no, it ain't funny)It ain't funny
(The lady wants your money) the lady wants your money, it's amazing!
(No, no, it ain't funny)Hmmm, It ain't funny
(The lady wants your money) the lady wants your money (money!)
Watch your baby!

Break

Guitar solo:

The lady wants your money,
The lady wants your money (money!)
Yeeeaah...

Maybe one day, maybe tool blaze, maybe fruit dance, and oh you'll see what I mean
(Maybe one day, maybe two days, maybe three days you're gonna see what I mean)
That sweet young thing and then her sugar daddy too, is gonna cup up know the sane (know the scene?)
You better get away, better get a way, but before you come around crown the blues (cryin' the blues)
A heartbreak city doesn't feel so pretty when you puttin' on my hurtin' shoes

She gave you, watch you're out, to get what she can take
She make her evil move, to get what she can make
Let me tell your sign

(No, no, it ain't funny)It ain't funny
(The lady wants your money) the lady wants your money, it's amazing!
(No, no, it ain't funny)Hmmm, It ain't funny
(The lady wants your money) the lady wants your money it's amazing
(No, no, it ain't funny)It ain't funny
(The lady wants your money) the lady wants your money, it's amazing!
(The lady wants your money) money!

*** This is all i hear, some lines are not so clear to me but if you have some correction feel freely to submit or send to my e-mail so i can correct mine. thanx -Eric Joaquin

*** I have a feeling the real lyrics will be a combination of different things that different people caught. Forinstance, you caught "and then her sugar daddy too," which I can now hear when I listen to it. I'll be watching for a final version. -Bill Norton
