people  will  steal  from  their  mother
people  will  rob  their  own  brother

because  they  never  know  who  in  the  world  they're  gonna  beat
for  that  lean,mean,mean  green
almighty  dollar,money
people  will  lie,lord,they  will  cheat
people  don't  care  who  they  hurt  or  beat
a  woman  will  sell  her  precious  body
for  a  small  piece  of  paper  it  carries  a  lot  of  weight
for  that  lean,mean,mean ,mean,mean  green
almighty  dollar
