Money’s Tight
Words & Music
by Harvey Brooks & Diane Scanlon

VERSE1
Lost my job , Had a bad day
Unemployment check’s three weeks away
Empty pockets, money’s spent
Still got to pay the rent
No job, or hope of finding one
Looking for work keeps me on the run

CHORUS
When Money’s Tight
You got to think twice
When Money’s tight , When Money’s tight
When Money’s tight
Hearts are cold as ice
When Money’s tight, When Money’s

VERSE2
Born a blue collar man
Don’t mean much , just part of a plan
Know your fate’s in someone else’s hand
You accept it but don’t understand
Livin’ on the poor side of town
Brings out the anger you been keeping down

BRIDGE
Don’t know the reason
Just a victim of the time
Don’t have the answer
It’s out of our hand’s
Still have to take a stand

CHORUS
When Money’s Tight
You got to think twice
When Money’s tight , When Money’s tight
When Money’s tight
Hearts are cold as ice
When Money’s tight, When Money’sVERSE3

Verse 3
Walks the street all day long
Pride is broken but his back is strong
Gets more disgusted day after day
Desperation keeps getting’ in his way
Knows he has to pull his family through
He’ll do anything that he has to do
CHORUS
