I Been Laid Off From Work
My Rent Is Due
My Kids All Need
Brand New Shoes

So I Went To The Bank
To See What They Could Do
They Said Son - Looks Like Bad Luck
Got-a Hold On You

Chorus:
Money's Too Tight To Mention
I Can't Get An Un-em-ploy-ment Ex-ten-sion
Money's Too Tight To Mention

I Went To My Brother
To See What He Could Do -
He Said Bro-ther Like To Help You
But I'm Unable To
So I Called On My Fa-ther Fa-ther
Oh My Fa-ther
He Said

Chorus:
Money's Too Tight To Mention
Oh Mo-ney Mo-ney Mo-ney Mon-ey
Mo-ney's Too Tight To Mention
I Can't Even Qual-i-fy For My Pension

We Talk A-bout Rea-gan-on-ics
Oh Lord Down In The Con-gress
They're Passing All Kinds - Of Bills
From Down Cap-it-ol Hill - (we've Tried Them)

Chorus:
Money's Too Tight To Mention
(spoken) Cut-back!
Mo-ney Mo-ney Mo-ney Mon-ey
We're Talk-in' A-bout Mon-ey Mon-ey
We're Talk-in' A-bout Mon-ey Mon-ey
We're Talk-in' 'bout The Dollar Bill
Now What Are We All To Do
When The Mon-ey's Got A Hold On You?
Mo-ney's Too Tight To Mention
Oh Mon-ey Mon-ey Mon-ey Mon-ey
Mo-ney's Too Tight To Mention
A-mero - Mon-ey Oh Yeah
We're Talk-in' A-bout Mon-ey Mon-ey
We're Talk-in' A-bout Mon-ey Mon-ey
We're Talk-in' A-bout Mon-ey Mon-ey
We're Talk-in' A-bout Mon-ey Mon-ey…..
