  • Songwriters: Bernard Besman, John Lee Hooker

Well, you take my money, you call it chicken feed
Take my money and you throw it around
Baby, how can you do it?
Baby, how can you do it?
Baby, how can you do it, throw my money around?

Well, I work hard everyday as a man's supposed to do
Take my money and bring it home to you
Baby, how can you do it?
Baby, how can you do it?
Baby, how can you do it, throw my money around?

I done told you once, I ain't gon' tell you no more
Next time I tell you, I got to let you down
Baby, how can you do it?
Baby, how can you do it?
Baby, how can you do it, throw my money around? Yes, yes

Well, my mama told her papa, told me too
If you weren't no good for me, why dontcha let you go?
Baby, how can you do it?
Baby, how can you do it?
Baby, how can you do it, throw my money around?

Baby, how can you do it?
Baby, how can you do it?
Baby, how can you do it, throw my money around?

You take my money, you call it chicken feed
Take my money and you throw it around
Baby, how can you do it?
Baby, how can you do it?
Baby, how can you do it, throw my money around?
