One day at the bottom of the hill where they play She lost a golden coin and the troll would not trade her They say she lost a fortune and she lost it to her And then he grew despondent cos she would not desert him He laid out his hand and said ‘make me an offer’ Then she asked the troll for just how much did it cost her You got to have money, you got to have money Then he told the troll that you got to have money You’ve got to have money, you’ve got to have money Girl you tell your daddy that he’s got to have money Castles and tassels and flatulent assholes And you got to have money, you got to have money
