If money is the root of all evil   I'd like to be a bad, bad man   'Cause I'm sittin' here with nothing but time   Trying to make you understand      My time for you is as good as gold   But I ain't got but one dime   If I could just get out of this soul   Baby, we could have a good time, oh yeah      Man said time is on my side   He never knew me that well   'Cause I've got plenty of time on my hands   Time ain't easy to sell      If I could just get a little bit ahead   Think of the things we could do   I'd take my time, your little hand in mine   Spend a lot of money on you      But time ain't money   You know it's a shame   Time ain't money   Unfortunate thang      Time ain't money   Know it's a bitch   If time was money   I'd already be rich      Supposed to be a check at the union   If only I could pick it up   But I got hit with some bad family shit   It looks like I'm out of luck      If I could be a very rich man   Baby, you know that it's true   If I had a dime for every minute of time   I spend thinking of you      Time ain't money   You know it's a shame   Time ain't money   Unfortunate thang      Time ain't money   And you know it's a bitch   If time was money, you know honey   I'd already be rich      If money is the root of all evil   I'd like to be a bad, bad man   'Cause I'm sittin' here with nothing but time   Trying to make you understand      My love for you is as good as gold   But I ain't got but one dime   If I could just get out of this soul   Baby, we could have a good time      But if time, time ain't money   You know it's a shame   And time ain't money   Unfortunate thang      Time ain't money   And you know it's a bitch   'Cause if time was money   Oh honey      Time ain't money   Time ain't money   Time ain't money   I know what they say      Time ain't money   Time ain't money   Time ain't money   Unless you're gettin' paid      Time ain't money   Time ain't money   'Cause if time was money   Oh honey, I'd already be rich      If you got the money honey, I got the time
