The Money Tree lyrics

Pull up an easy chair

And sit yourself down

And lean back

While I tell you bout

The folks that live in

The town of Greenback

They never have to work

On their hands and knees

Cause they live in a place

Where money grows on trees

(CHORUS)

Oh, the money tree

The money tree

It's a beautiful sight to see

Why couldn't it happen

To you and me

There ain't a man in town

Who isn't a regal spender

And they never wear a frown

For lack of that legal tender

They're all ten years ahead

On their income tax

And the whole town's driving

Next year's Cadillacs

(CHORUS)

Oh, the money tree

The money tree

It's a beautiful sight to see

Why couldn't it happen

To you and me

Well, it grows fresh new bills

That snap and crack and as

Fast as you can pick 'em up

It grows em back

Now, every day

There's a bumper crop

With a million dollar bill

Way up on top

(CHORUS)

Oh, the money tree

The money tree

It's a beautiful sight to see

Why couldn't it happen

To you and me

There's just one way to

Visit the town of Greenback

Pull up an easy chair

And sit yourself down

And lean back

Then close your eyes and

Suddenly, you will see

That beautiful, lovely

Wonderful money tree
