That's Rich

SINGER
I'm doing alright for myself,
Folks:
I'm healthy, I'm wealthy,
I'm wise.
My investments and such
Have all gone up so much-
Seems whatever I touch
Starts to rise.
I've got men, I've got money
And yet
The thing I want most
I cant get.
uh, that feels good,
I like that.
I live in a mansion on
Long Island sound.
I pulled up a weed, they
Found oil in the ground.
But you telling me you don't
Want me around-
Now, honey, that's rich.
some guys give me vermans
chincilla and mink
Some give me diamonds
As big as a sink,
But you wouldn't give me so
Much as a wink-
Now, baby, that's rich.
I get brandy from Andy
And candy from Scott.
Oh, and Frank and Eduardo
Chipped in for a yacht.
I get stares from the fellas
And prayers from the pope,
But I ran out my luck
Getting stuck on some dope!
Hey baby, I was just talking about you.
Now, listen, sport,
This lifes too short
To waste it on you.
It may be rough,
But soon enough
Ill learn to make do with
The mansion, the oil well,
The diamonds, the yacht,
With Andy, Eduardo,
The pontiff and Scott
And Frank. Oooooo!
And my bank!
So spill no tears for me,
Cause there's one thing you ain't,
That Ill always be,
And honey,
Yeah, that's right,
That's rich! That's rich!
That's rich! That's rich!
