[English]

I came here to drop some money

dropping all my money

Drop some money, all this bread so yummy, yeah

Twerking, twerking, when I buy the things I like

Dolla', dollas dropping on my ass tonight.

Check, check, check, check that money

Making bank account number (yikes!)

That's that shit that's never getting bounced on ya

Bitch, I do the money dance, I just made a hundred bands

When the store says, "sign for it," I'ma leave my autograph

Dolla' bills, dolla' bills watch it fallin' for me

I love the way that feels

Dolla' bills, dolla' bills keep on fallin' for me

I love the way it feels

I came here to drop some money, dropping all my money

Drop some money, all this bread so yummy, yeah

Twerking, twerking, when I buy the things I like

Dolla', dollas dropping on my ass tonight

(Drop some money, dropping all my money)

(Drop some money, all this bread so yummy, yeah)

Drop some money, dropping all my money

drop some money, all this bread so yummy, yeah
