The Drifters – Money Honey

Money Honey

Hey music lovers! Today, I want to introduce you to a classic song that will have you tapping your feet and singing along in no time. It’s called “Money Honey” and it was performed by the legendary group, The Drifters.

Released in 1956 as part of their album “Clyde McPhatter & The Drifters,” this song quickly became a hit and solidified The Drifters’ place in music history. With its catchy melody and soulful vocals, “Money Honey” is a timeless piece that still resonates with audiences today.

The composition of “Money Honey” is credited to Jesse Stone, a talented songwriter and producer. Stone’s ability to blend R&B, blues, and rock and roll elements is evident in this song, creating a unique sound that was ahead of its time.

But what does “Money Honey” really mean? Well, the lyrics tell a story of a man who is infatuated with a woman who only seems to care about money. He’s willing to do anything to win her over, even if it means spending all his hard-earned cash. It’s a relatable theme that many can connect with, even decades later.

The influence of “Money Honey” can be felt in the music industry to this day. It paved the way for future R&B and rock and roll artists, inspiring them to experiment with different genres and push the boundaries of what was considered popular music.

Money Honey – The Drifters lyrics

🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 🎤

By the time I was your age, I’d give anything
To fall in love truly, was all I could think
That’s when I met your mother, the girl of my dreams
The most beautiful woman, that I’d ever seen

She said, “Boy can I tell you a wonderful thing?
I can’t help but notice, you’re staring at me.
I know I shouldn’t say this, but I really believe,
I can tell by your eyes that you’re in love with me.”

Now, son, I’m only telling you this
Because life can do terrible things.

Now, most of the time we’d have too much to drink
And we’d laugh at the stars and we’d share everything
Too young to notice, and too dumb to care
Love was a story that couldn’t compare.

I said, “Girl, can I tell you a wonderful thing?
I made you a present with paper and string.
Open with care now, I’m asking you, please.
You know that I love you, will you marry me?”

Now, son, I’m only telling you this
Because life can do terrible things
You’ll learn, one day, I’ll hope and I’ll pray,
That God shows you differently.

She said, “Boy can I tell you a terrible thing?
It seems that I’m sick and I’ve only got weeks.
Please, don’t be sad now, I really believe,
You were the greatest thing that ever happened to me.”

Slow, so slow I fell to the ground on my knees.

So don’t fall in love, there’s just too much to lose
If you’re given the choice, then I beg you to choose
To walk away, walk away, don’t let her get you.
I can’t bear to see the same happen to you.

Now, son, I’m only telling you this
Because life can do terrible things
