Robert Plant Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She got the money and I got the honey
Called my baby late last night
She told me daddy everything was all right
She got the money and I got the honey
She got the money and I got the honey
She got the money and I got the honey
I don't have to worry about her she's real fine
I know my baby and she's all mine
She give me a Cadillac, a diamond ring
She told me daddy don't you worry bout a thing
She got the money and I got the honey
She got the money and I got the honey
She got the money and I got the honey
She's all mine and I'm so glad
She's the best woman that I ever had
She's all mine and I'm so glad
She's all mine and I'm so glad
She's all mine and I'm so glad
Ah, stop your train
Ah mama stop your train
The song "Rich Woman" by Robert Plant and Alison Krauss celebrates the idea of finding true love and feeling fortunate for having someone who is not only a partner but also wealthy. The chorus repeats the phrase "She got the money, and I got the honey," emphasizing the balance between the two characters - one brings financial security and the other brings love and affection. The lyrics suggest that the male protagonist is grateful for his rich partner's lavish gifts, such as a Cadillac and a diamond ring, but is also confident in her love for him and doesn't feel threatened by her wealth. He calls her "daddy" affectionately, which could suggest a playful dynamic in their relationship, as well as hinting at her status as the breadwinner.
The second verse highlights the female partner's reassurances to her lover, showing that she understands the insecurities he may have regarding their unequal financial status. When she says "everything was all right," it could be interpreted as a signal of her trust and dedication to him and their relationship. The repetition of "She's all mine and I'm so glad" throughout the song reinforces the idea that this is a love song at its core, with money being a secondary topic. The final line, "Ah, mama stop your train," could be interpreted as a plea to slow down and cherish the present moment, rather than focusing on accumulating wealth or social status.

Can’t believe this is Robert Plant. And I’m really digging that tremolo guitar…..very early 1960s beach style! ☀️🌴 🎸
@kennyc388
Yeah baby, tremolo. Perfect number for a Tarantino flick I'd say .
@mariajukejax9649
Perfect song to listen to on a sunny day, cool cocktail in hand while laying in a hammock....All because of that guitar tremolo
@anthonyharmon9265
@KENNY C or a young Elvis....black leather jacket and no shirt....hair greased back....thick sunglasses on.....this on the stereo in his bad ass cadillac as he is cruising on a Saturday night...with a metal skull gear shifter......and a long .45 caliber on the passenger seat.....😎

Sicario seemed like a stupid action movie but then it turned out to be an absolute masterpiece
@gingerli5820
This song was beautifully woven into that movie, contributing to its cinematic climax in more ways than one. Sicario is a tight, masterful portrayal of what is happening on the US/Mexico border and the challenges of reining in the wholesale criminality occurring there.
@diannedrouillard1812
Love this tune. Very jazzy, yet sounds 60s beach tone.
@zackhudson5172
Hello 👋 Dianne. How are you doing? Hope you are fine. I'm Zack Hudson and am from Denver Colorado. Where you are from ? You seem like a real country girl
@tonyt.michaels4814
For me this is the best cut off the album. Robert Plant carries the vocals.
@auto5man
