Hey-hey, hey-hey
I'm gettin' money on the streets, hey
You niggas don't know how to eat, hey
Brrrrr-r-r-eh-eh-eh-eh, hey
I turn a dime into a dollar, hey
If you know how to hustle, nigga, holla, hey
Brrrrr-r-r-eh-eh-eh-eh (believe that, yeah)

I get it from my cousin, I'm buzzin (paint your motherfuckin' town red)
Brrrrr-r-r-eh-eh-eh-eh
And you know who I am (fully loaded)
Neighborhood dealer man

Homie, it don't really matter what you say (believe that, young)
Say eh, say eh, say eh (all day every day)
Bitch, I'm gettin money (we the business)

Comin' through shinin' (shinin')
Blew a couple of hundreds (couple of hundreds)
Big Tymin' all the time, niggas been stuntin' (bitch, I'm gettin' money)
Pearl white Maybach, nigga spent a mill
Bugatti for 2 on the hill (bitch, I'm gettin' money)
Shinin' with my strap in my right pocket
Hundred thousand a day on that sky rocket
From 'round the block, doin' this shit round the clock ('round the clock)
Million dollar nigga doing this shit non-stop
Swagged out, big doggin' on a private flight
Poppin' bottles, celebratin' living life
Blowin' big, feet landed down in the sand
YMCMB, nigga, Rich Gang (brrat)

Put the money on the trampoline and make it flip

Bitch, I'm gettin money

If I ain't gettin' money, then I'm gettin' pussy
I don't play with you pussies, get a silver bullet
I know you lookin', so how I look?
I don't fuck with niggas, call me George Bush
It's Tunechi, baby, the money man
The money talks, now I understand
That chopper make a nigga do the running man
I would take your girl and turn her pussy to a punching bag
I'ma stunt my ass off, bitch, that's word to Stunna man
School these bitch ass niggas, you a undergrad
The world is in my hand, smack the shit out you with my other hand
