I just wrote a blog post on the manifest money dilema and included 3 songs about money.
For The Love of Money
O'Jays
Money (That's What I Want)
Barrett Strong
Money
Pink Floyd
What are some other great songs about money? One of my favorites is Lifestyle of The Rich and The Famous by Good Charlotte

Hey Les, I used to run around singing and dancing to We're In The Money when I was just a kid. That's when I knew I was a freaky weirdo unlike all my little friends at school. What is it from?

Hi Monica,
I put it in the original post paranthetically. It's from a musical that I have a video of, "Goldiggers of 1933."
It was a depression era song- sound familiar?
Later on it was in the musical 42nd Street.
We're in the money,
We're in the money;
We've got a lot of what it takes to get along!
We're in the money,
The sky is sunny;
Old Man Depression, you are through,
You done us wrong!
We never see a headline
'Bout breadline, today,
And when we see the landlord,
We can look that guy right in the eye .
We're in the money
Come on, my honey
Let's spend it, lend it,
Send it rolling around!
All:
We're in the money,
We're in the money;
We've got a lot of what it takes to get along!
We're in the money,
The sky is sunny;
Old Man Depression, you are through,
You done us wrong!
We never see a headline
'Bout breadline, today,
And when we see the landlord,
We can look that guy right in the eye.
Look that guy right in the eye-
Look that guy right in the eye-
We're in the money
Come on, my honey
Let's spend it, lend it, send it-
Let's spend it, lend it, send it
Rolling, rolling-
Rolling around!
