When the money talks, what is there to say? (woo)
Blow away, watch it blow away (phew)
When I die, can't take it to the grave (Quavo)

I told my momma I'ma change the game (momma)
So I bought a Lamborgini just to swang (skrrt, skrrt)
An' I know I can't take that fame to the grave (no)
So I'ma go hard, ball like the Braves (uh)
Know some young niggas swangin', chain danglin'
Screamin' out that rather rich than be famous (rich)
Go through that check, load them Benjamin, blue faces
Fuckin' bitches, different races (smash)

Different type bitches for different occasions (skrrt)
Think I'm from Houston, the way I be swangin' (go)
Swangin' it, trap out the bando (bando)
My lifestyle is a rodeo (rodeo)
I feel like the greatest, Muhammad Ali (Ali)
I'm never gon' get with the rubber dough (woo)
Hunnid thousand worth of chains (chains)
Rollie on me, plain jane
Don't try to take my jewelry
'Cause I know some young niggas like to swang

Swang, swang, swang like I'm tippin' on 4-4 (skrrt)
Sippin' on 4-4 (drank, woo)
Swang, swang, swang like I'm tippin' on 4-4 (skrrt)

Runnin' up a check like Usain
Kickin' flavour, bitches callin' me Lu-Kang (kickin' it)
Beatin' nigga with a Ferragamo
But that nigga callin' me Pooty Tang (woah)
Got a super-freak called Mary Jane
When she with me, she act like I'm Rick James
You sure you wanna bet your money, lil' nigga
Walk in a store, come out with everythang
As a young nigga comin' up (sup?)
Started off hangin', bangin', then we went to swangin'
Put that work in the Act' like no Kurt Angle
Make you disappear, nigga, Criss Angel
Grandmomma watchin' me, I got a angel
Money conversation meet up at the round table
Rae Sremmurd them niggas, the beat is disabled
I'm drinkin' on Actavis, expensive flavors (Takeoff)

Know some young niggas like to swang
Know some young niggas like to swang
Big bank take lil' bank
Everyday spillin' up drank (drank)
She want the whole crew, shawty brave
When the money talks, what is there to say?




Blow away, watch it blow away
When I die, can't take it to the grave (grave, yeah)
