In the film, the song is sung by Donna Sheridan-Carmichael (played by Meryl Streep), along with her friends Rosie (Julie Walters) and Tanya (Christine Baranski).

Lyrics[]

Donna:
I work all night, I work all day
To pay the bills, I have to pay
Ain't it sad?

And still there never seems to be
A single penny left for me
That's too bad

In my dreams, I have a plan
If I got me a wealthy man
I wouldn't have to work at all
I'd fool around and have a ball

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In a rich man's world

Money, money, money
Always sunny
In a rich man's world

Oh-oh-oh-oh
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world
It's a rich man's world

Tanya, Donna, and Rosie:
A man like that is hard to find
But I can't get him off my mind
Ain't it sad?

And if he happens to be free
I bet he wouldn't fancy me
That's too bad

Donna:
So I must leave, I'll have to go
To Las Vegas or Monaco
And win a fortune in a game
My life will never be the same

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In a rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny

In a rich man's world
Oh-oh-oh-oh
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In a rich man's world

Money, money, money
Always sunny
In a rich man's world

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world
It's a rich man's world
