My My My
Jamie Lono Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've been working for the man for quite some time
and oh damn it's getting out of control
Clocking in at nine fifteen I do the same damn thing every week
I'm begging please I need relief
somebody come free my soul
Or do I gotta do the same damn thing all my life
Just to sleep all day and drink all night
And there I go and I don't know
and I've been looking round and god knows
I could use someone like you
to come and save me
So please come and save me
So singing
my my my
hey hey hey
Show me where the money's at
So singing
my my my
hey hey hey
Show me where the money's at
So singing
my my my
hey hey hey
Show me where the money's at
Well singing
Show me love
but we really need the money
Well you're hearing every day
all the people on the television say
Well there's children crying, people dying
Hoping momma's gonna come their way
She is the root of the evil
oh the devil stares us right in the eye
Well we want answers, no more chances
Somebody start telling us why
Why do we gotta do the same damn thing all our lives
Just to sleep all day and drink all night
Oh I could use someone like you to come and save me
And there I go and I don't know
and I've been looking round and god knows
I could use someone like you
to come and save me
So please come and save me
So singing
my my my
hey hey hey
Show me where the money's at
So singing
my my my
hey hey hey
Show me where the money's at
So singing
my my my
hey hey hey
Show me where the money's at
Well singing
Show me love
but we really need the money
Singing my my my

Show me where the money's at
Come on and sing it and

Show me where the money's at

Show me where the money's at
Well singing hey
show me love but we really need the money
