Folding Money
By Radney Foster

 
      E                   G                     A             B
When I was just a boy my granddaddy took me to town one afternoon.
            E           G                     A                B     
He drove an LTD, wore a big white Stetson and two-toned cowboy boots.
          E                        G                          A                  B     
He said, “Son, here you go,” as he handed me a twenty just to see the look on my face.
          E                                             B
He said, ”Don’t tell your momma nothing about it, don’t spend it all in one place.”


See it takes 

Chorus:
E                 G                  A                B         
Folding money, to get the deal done, folding money to have a little fun
E                 G                A                     B
Folding money, to pay a few bills, eat a steak dinner or cure a couple ills
E                  G                         A                      B         
Folding money, you need a little stash, some greenback dollars, and cold hard cash
E                                                          B
You can save it for a rainy day or throw away a little bit son
                 E
It takes folding money to get the deal done.


Ever since the day I learned to earn a dollar I’ve his advice to heart
‘Cause if a man finds the courage to keep his cash some romance is bound to start
Now romance is just like money you can always get more if you got it
And let me tell you friend, I’m a lot more handsome with a C note in my pocket

Chorus 2:
See it takes folding money to get the deal done, folding money to have a little fun
Folding money, pay a few bills, Take a girl dancin’ or cure a couple ills
Folding money, you need a little stash, some greenback dollars and cold hard cash
You can save it for a rainy day or throw away a little bit son
It takes folding money to get the deal done.

It’s a pain in the back, it’s a cold hard fact, it gets to everybody sooner or later
You can give it to a charity, ending some disparity or stock up your refrigerator
You can marry it or bed it, it’ll kill you if you let it, you can blow it with nothing to show
It’ll make your wallet fatter, but the truth of the matter’s can’t take it with you when you go

Chorus 3:
Better spend a little folding money to get the deal done, folding money to have a little fun
Folding money, pay a few bills spread a little round, it’ll cure a couple ills
Folding money, you need a little stash, some greenback dollars and cold hard cash
You can save it for a rainy day or throw away a little bit son
It takes folding money to get the deal done
