I got on a streetcar one day, the conductor held out his hand   You can't get no free ride here, man don't you understand   You must have - stuff they call money   You must have - down in your pocket   You must have - the stuff they call money   Don't you can't ride on here      See the girl goin' down the street, she look so nice and neat   I looked around at my buddy, he say "You know that can't be beat"   But you must have - stuff they call money   You must have - down in your pocket   You must have - the stuff they call money   Don't you can't buy it in here      I asked a girl, let's have some fun, this is what she said   "If you ain't got no money, you cain't get in my bed"   Cause you must have - stuff they call money   You must have - down in your pocket   You must have - the stuff they call money   Don't you can't buy it in here      I went in a place last night, a man pulled up a gun   He said "sit quiet everybody, don't nobody run"   Cause you must have - stuff they call money   You must have - down in your pocket   You must have - the stuff they call money   Don't you can't stay in here      I went in a place last night, I went there with my friend   This is what the people said, don't never come back again   Cause you must have - stuff they call money   You must have - down in your pocket   You must have - the stuff they call money   Don't you can't stay in here
