It's Money That Matters (LP Version) - Randy Newman[00:00:00]
Of all of the people that I used to know[00:00:15]
Most never adjusted to the great big world[00:00:23]
I see them lurking in book stores[00:00:30]
Working for the Public Radio[00:00:35]
Carrying their babies around in a sack on their back[00:00:38]
Moving careful and slow[00:00:42]
It's money that matters[00:00:46]
Hear what I say[00:00:50]
It's money that matters[00:00:54]
In the USA[00:00:57]
All of these people are much brighter than I[00:01:02]
In any fair system they would flourish and thrive[00:01:09]
But they barely survive[00:01:17]
They eke out a living and they barely survive[00:01:21]
When I was a young boy maybe thirteen[00:01:29]
I took a hard look around me and asked what does it mean [00:01:37]
So I talked to my father and he didn't know[00:01:45]
And I talked to my friend and he didn't know[00:01:49]
And I talked to my brother and he didn't know[00:01:52]
And I talked to everybody that I knew[00:01:56]
It's money that matters[00:02:00]
Now you know that it's true[00:02:04]
It's money that matters[00:02:08]
Whatever you do[00:02:11]
Then I talked to a man lived up on the county line[00:02:16]
I was washing his car with a friend of mine[00:02:23]
He was a little fat guy in a red jumpsuit[00:02:31]
I said "You look kind of funny"[00:02:38]
He said "I know that I do"[00:02:42]
"But I got a great big house on the hill here[00:02:47]
And a great big blonde wife inside it[00:02:51]
And a great big pool in my backyard and another great big pool[00:02:55]
Beside it[00:02:59]
Sonny it's money that matters hear what I say[00:03:01]
It's money that matters in the USA[00:03:09]
It's money that matters[00:03:17]
Now you know that it's true[00:03:21]
It's money that matters whatever you do"[00:03:25]
