Money is King

Growling Tiger

[Chorus]
If a man has money today
People don't care if he has kokobe
If a man has money today
People don't care if he has kokobe
He can commit murder and get off free
Live in the governor’s company
But if you are poor people tell you "Shoo!
A dog is better than you"

[Verse 1]
A man with money walks into the store
The boss must shake his hand at the door
Call ten lads to take down anything
Whisky, cloth, earring, and diamond ring
Send it to your home on a motor bike
You can pay the bill whenever you'd like
And not a soul will ask you a thing
They know very well that money is king

[Verse 2]
A dog can walk about and take a bone
Foul head, stale breath, fish tail and pone
If it's a good breed and not too wild
People will take it in mind as a child
But when a hungry man goes out to beg
They send a bulldog behind his legs
Twenty policemen will take him down too
You see how a dog is better than you

[Chorus]
So if a man has money today
People don't care if he has kokobe
If a man has money today
People don't care if he has kokobe
He can commit murder and get off free
Rise to the seat of the presidency
But if you are poor, people tell you "Shoo!
A dog is better than you"
