Billy Joel - Easy Money

Billy Joel - Easy Money

Lyrics:

You don't have to talk all night, I'm a man who can't say no
You don't have to twist my arm, just point me where you want to go

Take me to the action, take me to the track
Take me to a party if they're bettin' in the back
I've been working all my life, can't afford to wait
Let me call my wife so I can tell her I'll be late

I want the easy, easy money, easy money, I could get lucky
Oh, things could go right (Ah ah ah) I want the easy, easy money
Easy money, maybe this one time, maybe tonight

Aaaahh hah! You don't have to try too hard, I don't need a song and dance
Uh-I don't need an invitation-a, if you've got a game of chance

Take me to the tables, take me to the fights
Run me like the numbers, roll me like the dice
When you're counting on a killing, always count me in
Talk me into losin' just as long as I can win

I want the easy, easy money, easy money, I want the good times
Oh, I never had (Ah ah ah) I want the easy, easy money
Oh, I want the good life, I want it bad

Easy money, you say I fool myself, but better me than being a fool for someone else
I got a hot slot machine of a system ready to go...
Easy money, I got a one-track mind and a good reputation laying on the line
I'll either come back a bum or a king, baby I don't know...NICE...

You don't have to start a fire...ugh! I'm a man who can't say no
If you've got a little risky business, just point me where you want to go

Take me to the power, take me to the heat
Take me to the cleaners if it's open to the street
Something's got to pay off, something's got to break
Someone's got a fortune that they're begging me to take

I want the easy, easy money, easy money, I could get lucky
Things could go right (Ah ah ah) I want the easy, easy money
Easy money, maybe just this time, oh maybe tonight

Easy money, oh, I don't want no hard cash
I just want the easy money...oh...I could get lucky
(Easy money) Oh, count, count, count, count, count, haaa ha ha!
Oh Ive got some love now baby (Easy money)
Oh Ive got just a little easy money...

awesome song fits movie perfectly

[mrpankau]

I never had the desire to gamble in my life until I heard this song...

@batsy8113 the whole An Innocent Man was a homage to the music Billy Joel grew up listening to, with Uptown Girl being in the style of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, Tell Her About It being The Supremes or at least the Motown sound, The Longest Time being the Doo Wop of Dion and the Belmonts and even a little classic Beethoven on This Night.

@zalman595 Dude, you hit the spot! =)

Billy is easily one of the most versatile pop artists of all time. Smoking piano player, strong vocalist, memorable melodies, facile handling of various pop styles (from the Beatleoid "Laura", "Scandanavian skies" to Rockabilly -- and an unsurpassed lyricist. But I've always loved his music best when Billy went the blue-eyed soul route and kicked it over with tight horn arrangements and crack studio arrangements like he does here.

the song is pretty cool,but the movie was awesome!dangerfield&pesci made a great team.R.I.P. rodney!

[MEMO377]

Great song and the movie was pretty good too!

I like the part when they go to the open 23 hour shop and it was closed!

I got the back of my hand stuck in the toilet

Little James Brownesque?

I love Billy Joel, but I never heard of this until now. It's great.
