As recorded by The Kinks (From the 1974 Album PRESERVATION ACT 2) [Intro] A [Verse 1]
A
Show me a man who says he can live without bread

         D                      G
And I'll show you a man who's a liar and in debt

        A
There's no one around who can't be purchased or enticed

        D                         G
There's no man alive who wouldn't sell for a price

A
Money talks and we're the living proof

A
There ain't no limit to what money can do

      F            G
Money talks, money talks
[Verse 2]
A
Money can't breathe and money can't see

           D                       G
But when I pull out a fiver people listen to me

A
Money can't run and money can't walk

           D                             G
But when I write out a cheque I swear to God I hear money talk

A
Money talks and, baby, when you've been bought

A
You pay attention everytime money talks

      F            G
Money talks, money talks
[Bridge]
A
Money talks and there's no doubt about it

A
Money talks and we can't live without it

A
What's the point of living unless you've got money?

A
I just couldn't function without money

      F            G
Money talks, money talks
[Interlude] A
      F            G
Money talks, money talks
[Verse 3]
A
Show me an upright respected man

                  D                           G
And I'll have him licking my boots when I put money in his hand

   A
It rots your heart, it gets to your soul

           D                           G
Before you know where you are you're a slave to the green gold

A
Money talks and we're the living proof

A
There ain't no limit to what money can do

A
Money talks you out of your self-respect

A
The more you crave it the cheaper you get

      F            G
Money talks, money talks
[Bridge]
A
Money buys you time and people listen

A
Money can buy a smile and make life worth living

A
If you're ugly money can improve you

A
I just couldn't face the world without mazuma

      F            G
Money talks, money talks
[Outro]
A
Money talks, money talks
