Ever since the world began   Satan's followed every man   Trappin' evil if he can   I tell you now his greatest plan      Invented when I cannot tell   Defied the thoughts of man so well   Man wants money for his need   But soon it sows it's evil seed      Unhappiness it only brings   As man wants more and better things   An' not enough the evil lies   For soon you'll find somebody dies      Throughout the years there have been wars   Power an' richness have been the cause   Trapped in money's evil net   Man wants more than he can get      You don't need money   No, no, no, no   You don't need money   No, no, no, no   You don't need money   No, no, no, no      It'll never bring you love   No more than the sun above   You'll never see the end   The money you will surely spend      But ask for help if you sin   Well acclaim yourself for the state you're in   The devil has you in his grasp   There ain't no mercy you can ask      More and more you will need an'   You're strangled in the clutch of greed   You can't get out, no place to go   You sold your soul, the answer's no
