lyrics

Money ain’t been a friend of mine, keeps you addicted to the bottom line
Missed the turn, didn’t see the sign and man, you’re really gone
Rollin’ high ain’t what you need, wallet ain’t nothin’ but a mouth to feed
Squeeze a nickel, make the buffalo bleed, it’s time to carry on

Money ain’t nothin’ but a misdirection, get your jive with the rhythm section
What you need is a groove injection to get you flyin’ higher
A steady vamp makes you want to dance, puts you down like you’re in a trance
Fills you up with sweet romance and sets your soul on fire

Searchin’ for the lining in a silver cloud, never gonna find it there
If you ain’t gettin’ in the groove then man, you’re just a square
If you can’t hear the music, buddy you’ve hit the end
Just get you a solid eight to the bar ‘cause rhythm is your friend

Searchin’ for the lining in a silver cloud, never gonna find it there
If you ain’t gettin’ in the groove then man, you’re just a square
If you can’t hear the music, brother you’ve hit the end
Just get you a solid eight to the bar ‘cause rhythm is your friend
So pick up a solid eight to the bar and let the rhythm be your friend
