Money Helps
by Kathryn Morski

You can live on nothin' but love and beans, but money helps.
G G7 C
You can smile as holes sprout in your jeans, but money helps.
C C7
You can laugh at the crass bourgeoisie,
F Fm
Read Mother Earth News 'neath the old apple tree,
C A F
But those fancy plans don't come for free,
F G C
And money helps.
You can make great fun of Perrier, but money helps.
You can drive that rusty Chevrolet, but money helps.
You can celebrate with the cheapest wines,
Look forward to wealthier times
But just to pay those library fines,
Money helps!

Now, I'm not knocking simple pleasures -
F F# C
I know that cash can't cure all ills,
F F# C A
And I'm not looking for a ton of treasures -
D G
Just enough to pay some bills…
You can live a life of solid worth and money helps.
You can fill your days with fun and mirth, and money helps.
You can dance with big holes in your shoes;
You can say it's the simple life you choose;
But it's not rich folks invented the blues --
Money helps!
F F# C A F G C
Money helps!
