A room full of people
don’t agree on much
But a hundred dollars
Is still hundred bucks
A little piece of paper
A promise and a note
It’s legal Tender
That floats on hope
For Cash we scream
The American dream
Gonna buy some threads
And a huge lot of bling
Gonna pay cash
For the whole damn thing
My wallet thick
I got a wad
Full as hell
And I thank God
For Cash we scream
The American dream
Can you buy happiness
With a dollar bill
What’s a wad of cash worth
If you’re feeling ill
Do you like the feel
of money in your hand
What does it cost
To be the big head man
For cash we scream
The American dream
To have A lot makes you rich
To have a little makes you poor
It’s never enough
You always want more
You can’t take it with you
When you pass on
Yet we hoard all you can
Until the day we’re gone
For cash we scream
The American dream
