Every day in the mail I get nothin’ but bills

I could rap all day ‘bout my financial ills

Money comes in and goes right back out

I know you know what I’m talkin’ about.

My wife just keeps crankin’ up the heat

And three times every day those kids wanna eat!

But listen up now to what I got to say:

What I do every Friday when I get my pay

Before I buy the groceries or pay the rent

I gotta give God His full ten percent!

He gives me a hundred, I give back ten

I’m blessed all day from beginning to end.

I ain’t got a clue what tomorrow gonna bring

But I know who’s the giver of all good things

He’s got the 4-1-1 on all my needs

God’s got it all covered so it ain’t on me.

Give it straight off the top, that’s the way it’s gotta be

And everything’s good between God and me.

When I say a hundred, you say 10!

100!

(response) 10!

100!

(response) 10!

It ain’t complicated, lemme give you a hint

A tithe ain’t nothin’ but ten percent

I may not be the sharpest dude in the joint

But I know how to move a decimal point

I’m a tither now, that’s how I roll

I’m a grateful child on the Father’s dole.

Now you know how to do it, what’s your excuse?

You can’t play God’s money fast and loose

Where’s your heart? Just follow the cash

I’m storing mine up in a heavenly stash.

When God gives you a hundred, give back ten

And be blessed all day from beginning to end.
