Charlie Wood - Don't Let the Money Get Funny, Honey

Don’t let the money get funny, honey
Don’t let the money get funny, honey
Don’t let the money get funny, honey
Don’t let the money get funny, honey
You know, we did what we said
Now we gots to get paid
Don’t let the money get funny, honey

Don’t let the money get funny, honey
That isn’t my kinda joke
Words get spoken
A promise gets broken
And a bandleader winds up broke
You might need that bridge you just burned
To bring back that bread you earned
Don’t let it go up in smoke

Don’t let the money get funny, honey
Don’t let the money get funny, honey
Don’t let the money get funny, honey
Don’t let the money get funny, honey
You know, an ounce of complication
Will buy you a ton of aggravation
Don’t let the money get funny, honey

Don’t let the money get funny, honey
Don’t make the music sound bad
When you pay like you should
Man, we play pretty good
We play a lot better happy than sad
But don’t you sing us no blues
We got all we can use
You make a Memphis musician mighty mad

Don’t let the money get funny, honey
Don’t let the money get funny, honey
Don’t let the money get funny, honey
Don’t let the money get funny, honey
Cause when the money ain’t right
Peaceful fellas pick a fight
Don’t let the money get funny, honey

Don’t let the money get funny, honey
Keep the financial skies sunny, honey
Hop to the bank like a bunny, honey
Hurts, but it’s got to be done-y, honey
One of us might have a gun-ny, honey
Don’t let the money get funny, honey
Don’t let the money get funny, honey
Don’t let the money get funny, honey
