I'd Rather Be Rich (Original Rehearsal)

I'd Rather Be Rich (Original Rehearsal) - Chicago

I'd rather be rich it sounds a little funny

If diggin' a ditch would earn me lots of money

I'd dig like a fool in the land of milk and honey

Where every thing's cool

Provided you have money yeah yeah yeah

I'd rather be rich just short of being greedy

I'm eager to switch to hell with being needy

I'd rather be rich the truth of cash is tragic

The system's a b**ch

But money works like magic yeah yeah yeah

Money makes the world go round

Buy and sell it by the pound

Bitter truth that I have found

Food to eat shoes on your feet

Maybe some heat you live with defeat

Money gets you justice money sets you free

Money makes it possible to be or not to be

Money is the power money is the key

Sad and so unfortunate

But real as it can be yeah yeah yeah

I'd rather be rich than what the other choice is

My thumb out to hitch or riding in Rolls Royces

'Cause I ain't no fool in the land of milk and honey

Where every thing's cool

Until you lose your money yeah yeah yeah
