Abba - Money Money Money Song Lyrics
ABBABenny Andersson
Bjorn Ulvaeus
Anni-Frid Lyngstad
Agnetha Faltskog
I work all night, I work all day, to pay the bills I have to pay
Ain't it sad
And still there never seems to be a single penny left for me
That's too bad
In my dreams I have a plan
If I got me a wealthy man
I wouldn't have to work at all, I'd fool around and have a ball
Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world
A man like that is hard to find but I can't get him off my mind
Ain't it sad
And if he happens to be free I bet he wouldn't fancy me
That's too bad
So I must leave, I'll have to go
To Las Vegas or Monaco
And win a fortune in a game, my life will never be the same
Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world
Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world
It's a rich man's world
A Few Frida Facts:
Freda, the Brunette from Abba
Date of birth: November 15th, 1945
- Frida was born in Narvik, Norway, moving to Sweden when she was two years old.
- She made her first appearance as a singer on the stage at the age of ten.
- Frida recorded her first English-language solo album in what was to be ABBA's final year together, 1982. The album, which I still have on vinyl, was called Something's Going On, and was produced by Phil Collins.
- Two years later she released the album Shine, before abandoning her music career and devoting herself to family life and environmental work.
- She made a comeback in 1996 with the album Djupa andetag ("Deep Breaths"), sung in Swedish and which remains her last album to date.
- Frida is now mainly devoted to charity work, but occasionally appears as guest vocalist on other artists' records.

Read The Abba Article On Wikipedia
ABBA was a pop music group formed in Sweden in 1970, consisting of Anni-Frid Lyngstad (Frida), Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson (the "B-boys") and Agnetha Fältskog (Anna).
