'Cause when it comes to us just as fast as we can make it, spent
Got a hand full of change, it's all I could afford
In a brown paper sack from the quick stop man
It ain't comin' back, I don't know where it went?
But no, can do 'cause the money I'd use is spent
Tried my ATM card, County Bank, it flashed me no funds
I'd like to take a vacation, to the islands
Well it's spent, no it just don't last, yeah, it goes too fast
Yeah, it just gets spent, yeah, the money gets spent
You spent it on your friends, all I know is it gets spent
No it just don't last, yeah, it goes too fast
Well, there's people walkin' 'round in the world out there
Yeah, I went to go buy me a brand new dress
Even told me no thanks
You spent it on your friends, all I know is it gets spent
It ain't comin' back, I don't know where it went?
I want you to know the money's done spent
Bring mama, to the Bahamas
But you can't buy love like a lotta people think
But the man behind the counter wouldn't take my check
It ain't comin' back, I don't know where it went?
You spent it on your friends, all I know is it gets spent
Yeah, it just gets spent, yeah, the money gets spent
You spent it on your friends, all I know is it gets spent
No it just don't last, yeah, it goes too fast
Wouldn't give it back to me, it's all I could afford
I'd love to take you where the water's so blue
I ain't got no dough, no, I get it and it goes
Well it's spent, no it just don't last, yeah, it goes too fast
A twist off bottle and tall boy can
Money down the drain, it's all I could afford
Like the water flows outta my hands, uncle Sam
Yeah, it just gets spent, yeah, the money gets spent
Just wishin' they could have what we got here
Said, there's nothin' for free, it's all I could afford
It ain't comin' back, I don't know where it went?
