When I was just a boy my granddaddy   Took me to town one afternoon   He drove an LTD, wore a big white Stetson   And two tone cowboy boots      He said, "Son here it goes?, and he handed me a twenty   Just to see the look on my face   He said, ?Don?t tell your mama nothing about it   Don?t spend it all in one place?      You see it takes folding money to get the deal done   Folding money to have a little fun   Folding money to pay a few bills   Eat a steak dinner and cure a couple ills      Folding money, you need a little stash   Greenback dollars and cold hard cash   Save it for a rainy day or go away a little bit, son   It takes folding money to get the deal done      Now ever since the day I learned to earn a dollar   I?ve been taking his advice to heart   ?Cause when a man finds the courage to keep his cash   Some romance is bound to start      Now romance is just like money   You can always get more if you?ve got it   And let me tell you friends, I?m a lot more   Handsome with a C note in my pocket      You see it takes folding money to get the deal done   Folding money to have a little fun   Folding money to pay a few bills   To take a girl dancing and cure a couple ills      Folding money, you need a little stash   Greenback dollars and cold hard cash   Save it for a rainy day or go away a little bit, son   It takes folding money      It?s a pain in the back, it?s a cold hard fact   Gets to everybody sooner or later   You can give it to a charity and in some disparity   Stock up your refrigerator      [Incomprehensible], it?ll kill you if you let it   You can blow it with nothing to show   It will make your wallet fatter but the truth   Of the matter?s can?t take it with you when you go   Better spend a little      Folding money to get the deal done   Folding money to have a little fun   Folding money to pay a few bills   Spread a little ?round and cure a couple ills      Folding money, you need a little stash   Greenback dollars and cold hard cash   Save it for a rainy day or go away a little bit, son   It takes folding money to get the deal done      Folding money   Folding money
