They say money won’t buy you happiness
But it’ll buy me a brand new car
And I promised my mother a new Corvette
Out of this old guitar
And I know I don’t need that old shade of green
Don’t need no college degree
I’m a dig down and put some seeds in the ground
And the money’s gonna grow on the trees
I know, I know, I know
I shouldn’t say it
I know, I know, I know
It’s not cool
We got the bill and someone’s got to pay it
I’m just going to tell you the truth
I do it for the paper
The paper, the paper
I do it for the paper
The paper, the paper
I do it for the paper
The paper, the paper
What you do it for?
What you do it for?
What you do it for?
I do it for the paper
They say money won’t buy you a woman’s love
But it’ll buy her a pretty big ring
Will she still be around if the cheque’s gonna bounce
When I try to buy her that bling
And my brothers, they need to get away to Miami
Remind ‘em what it means to be free
When Uncle Sam comes down, doing his rounds
You just tell him to come talk to me
I know, I know, I know
I shouldn’t say it
I know, I know, I know
It’s not cool
We got the bill and someone’s got to pay it
I’m just going to tell you the truth
I do it for the paper
The paper, the paper
I do it for the paper
The paper, the paper
I do it for the paper
The paper, the paper
What you do it for?
What you do it for?
What you do it for?
I do it for the paper
What you do it for?
What you do it for?
What you do it for?
What you do it for?
What you do it for?
What you do it for?
What you do it for?
What you do it for?
What you do it for?
We got the bill and someone’s got to pay it
I’m just going to tell you the truth
I do it for the paper
The paper, the paper
I do it for the paper
The paper, the paper
I do it for the paper
The paper, the paper
I do it for the paper
The paper, the paper
I do it for the paper
The paper, the paper
I do it for the paper
The paper, the paper
What you do it for?
What you do it for?
What you do it for?
I do it for the paper
