Ahhhhhhh, ooooooo, la la la.

Ahhhhhhh, ooooooo, la la la.



Jenny's got a brand new car,

She drives it past 90

Up and down the stars boulevards

She even looks the part.



And everyone on my block is getting bigger

the handshakes are getting stronger than ever

I like the way they walk.



But you don't got nothing but money,

And the money gets the best of you.

And then you're just another carbon copy that's riding a wave.



Ahhhhhhh, ooooooo, la la la.

Ahhhhhhh, ooooooo, la la la.



The shots you took they went to your head

You're playing Tom Petty better than he plays himself

God bless you're used to your wealth



And look who's on the late night TV

Your presence is stellar

Andy always thought you were better back at his school indeed



But you don't got nothing but money,

And the money gets the best of you.

And then you're just another carbon copy that's riding a wave.



Ahhhhhhh, ooooooo, OOOO



Oh the big machines, how they push you through.

You're climbing the stairs, you're going somewhere

Congratulations!

What you gonna do when they're all over you?

I've seen it before, you're dropped at the door

No money, no more.



But you don't got nothing but money,

And the money gets the best of you.

And then you're just another carbon copy that's riding a wave.



I said you don't got nothing but money,

And the money gets the best of you.

And then you're just another carbon copy that's riding a wave on through.



I said hey man you don't know, because this means nothing to you.

I said hey man you don't know, all the shit that I went through.
