Joel, Billy - 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 me 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 easy money
Easy money
Easy money
I could get lucky
Oh, things could go right

I want the easy
Easy money
Easy money
Maybe this one time
Maybe tonight

You don't have to try too hard
I don't need a song and dance
I don't need an invitation
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 to 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
I want the easy
Easy money
I want the good life
I want it bad

Easy money
You say I fool myself
But better me than 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

You don't have to start a fight
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
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
I could get lucky

  23. B.... ....

    this is the last great album Billy Joel did IMO. Then again, I'm not a superfan so there's that.....

  24. R.... R....

    Would love to see Joe Pesci do a cover of this song.

    R.... R....

    the less Joe Pesci sings the better

    R.... R....

    That would suck! He probably can't sing for shit! What a fucked up idea you got there.

  25. E.... J....

    YouTubeers in a nutshell

  26. M.... R....

    I am STILL LOOKING for that restaurant that is "Open 23 Hours"...I have so many questions for that staff..

  27. F.... B....

    I wish just once he would start a show with either this song or Modern Woman.

  28. F.... F....

    Really nice horn work on the choruses here.

  29. T.... C....

    Great song

  30. N.... G....

    Makes me want to go play blackjack

  31. s.... ....

    the jam

  32. W.... ....

    This was also in the movie Easy Money starring Rodney Dangerfield, Joe Pesci and Jennifer Jason Leigh!

    W.... ....

    This song was actually written specifically for that movie

  33. G.... ....

    This song was awesome and it's from the 1983 film Easy Money which starred Rodney Dangerfield. Very funny movie and my mom had it on a recorded VHS back then. I don't know what happened to it now.

  34. A.... M....

    This is hilarious, there are people legit giving ways to get easy money in the comments, im dead

  35. M.... S....

    The ending line from Rodney Dangerfield, from the movie Easy Money. My mother-in-law, for years, I wouldn't kiss her face, I ended up kissing her ass. 😆

  36. B.... S....

    Love this song because I'm a gambler sort of my national anthem. Ahahaha

  37. M.... 2....

    I'm just browsing YouTube don't mind me.

    M.... 2....

    Perhaps you're just half browser.....on your father's side??!

  38. R.... A....

    Incalzante ben strutturata .... Ennesimo gioiello di PIANO MAN

  39. N.... C....

    Rodney Dangerfield.....the best!

    N.... C....

    Monty Capuletti. lol

    N.... C....

    yes sir

  40. J.... I....

    Billy Joel looks like a young Billy Crystal in this album cover

    J.... I....

    not even close

    J.... I....

    No he doesn't.

    J.... I....

    Has anyone ever seen them in the same room at the same time?

  41. M.... P....

    Not my favorite but he is to genius to say i don't like it it's very catchy and if you really listen to the words it's a pretty cool.

  42. R.... V....

    Worth the listen just for Billy screaming alone.

    R.... V....

    RanetPlock Video meee

  43. O.... �....

    16 trillion dollars. I want my 16 trillion dollars.

    O.... �....

    I just want $4 million yeah first prize lotto  I bloody well deserve it

    O.... �....

    @MrPizza063
    Maybe a government job; I hear they pay well and the benefits, don't get me started on the benefits.

    O.... �....

    @Ortaiηe Ðeviaη stuff it  I want the 31$million jackpot on new years eve  I deserve it 

    O.... �....

    @MrPizza063
    Stuff it? Well Mr. Pizza, unless you're talking about the crust, you're never going to win the jackpot with THAT attitude. Take that frown & turn it upside down. Me, I'm suing the federal government for being dumbfucks - they deserve it. $16 trillion - that's how fucking dumb they are.

  44. A.... H....

    Timeless classic album, it's really hard to find an album made up of great hits! . . . Thriller!!!

    A.... H....

    Did you throw "Thriller" in there because that is also an album full of great hits?? lol

    A.... H....

    It the Michael Jackson album he lost to at the Grammys that year. Such bad luck. Shows how good music used to be.

  45. L.... T....

    I went to the horse races on Mother Day for the first time,this song fits me. Happy Birthday Billy Joel.

  46. L.... ....

    I've noticed that he likes to start off his albums with angsty songs.

  47. R.... B....

    EASY MONEY http://gsniper.com/?hop=gatehouse1&vtid=cm EASY MONEY Why not work from home online and join me http://gsniper.com/?hop=gatehouse1&vtid=cm fast cash awaits, fantastic strategies included to succeed.

    R.... B....

    +Rob Barr Well, at least you chose an appropriate video for your advertisement.

  48. s.... ....

    You ever notice how the opening riff of this is a sped up version of The Doors' Changeling? It even has the same grunt at the start...

    s.... ....

    I KNEW it sounded wildly familiar!

    s.... ....

    +samnic1998 Yes, but that lick wasn't original to the Doors, it's came from a song by Lowell Fulson called "Tramp", and a million people have stole it since then :)

    s.... ....

    And Funkytown.

  49. y.... f....

    it's a good song (y)

  50. J.... E....

    This one would have been a big hit as a single.

    BTW, what's with the trolls peddling stuff on this page instead of more of the true Billy Joel fans on the pages of all his other songs???????????????

    J.... E....

    I love Billy Joel hence the name and the video

    J.... E....

    +The Piano Man on my channel.

    J.... E....

    B side to Innocent man...also on the soundtrack for the Rodney Dangerfield movie "Easy Money".

    J.... E....

    James Edgar+ It was a hit when it came out! We're you drunk during that time?

  51. C.... D....

    I dont trust this video, but i found good tut. onlyHere
    Really working:www.EliteMoneyMethods.com.
    Last night I made $285.22.

    C.... D....

    Me neither, It seems he is a man that can't say no. He's got a little risky buisness.
    Also, thanks for that whole natural selection thing

    C.... D....

    Charles Darwin This is just a song, calm down. I can understand if this is a joke, but just in case, it's still a fucking song

    C.... D....

    you really deserve a darwin award dude

  52. B.... K....

    Great song that was a perfect fit for the movie "Easy Money." I think this album was a showcase not only for Billy Joel's songwriting craft ,but also for his extraordinary skills as a pianist and vocalist. One of the best albums of the early eighties.

    B.... K....

    absolutely and the movie itself so funny oh yeah

    B.... K....

    You are so right An Innocent Man so underrated

  53. R.... F....

    Born in '72. Know all the words to all the songs. Currently working on a few voice imitation and development techniques. What a teacher. Thanks Bill.

    R.... F....

    Robert Fish wow same here. 1972, work often on voice imitation, mostly of Billy, but Steve Winwood too, some Tom Jones

    R.... F....

    I love this song because I'm a gambler sort of my national anthem.

    R.... F....

    I had his 1st album on 8 track. the stranger. Love his music

  54. V.... S....

    I have always liked this song, its the BEST~

  55. S.... C....

    "CLUCK YOU, RANDY!"

  56. s.... l....

    He'd studied expensive courses hung out at pricey seminars and thrown his hard-earned cash at every online business opportunity in sight..he will give to you ALL THE SUPPORT..advice, guidance,tips..needed to succeed RNMONEAEYATHOME.HOSTEI.COM
