Touch The World
MONEY TIGHT
Maurice White, Allee Willis & D. Sembello

I’m always dreamin’ bout my baby
Rent is due, I’m slipping on the job
No time to think about survival
Push for the cash ain’t in my heart
‘Cause there’s nothing more that
I’m living for
Than you baby, oh my baby
In this crazy world there is just one girl
It’s you baby, oh my baby

(Chorus)
Money tight don’t feel right
Richest man has no fight alone
Material things don’t matter
If your heart don’t get that patter in your bones
Money tight with me
You love’s all I need

Ain’t got no time for superstition
Can’t roll the dice and win your heart
When it’s love it’s strictly business
Once you cheat it only falls apart
And I live each day knowing love will pay
With you baby, oh my baby
Though my porcket’s bare, you are always there
For me baby, oh my baby

(Chorus)
Money tight don’t feel right
Richest man has no fight alone
Material things don’t matter
If your heart don’t get that patter in your bones
Money tight with me
You love’s all I need

(Bridge)
Money, money tight for me.
Money, money tight for me.

(Vamp)
Money tight don’t feel right
The richest man has no fight all alone
Material things don’t matter
If your heart don’t get that patter in your bones
Money tight with me
Your love’s all I need
