Wake up in my mess under your rooftop,
Take the time to drag a brush through my hair,
Head out to my second, and my third job,
Sometimes it's all too much to bear.
Think I'm starting late, but then I'm early,
Break my back, the boss man doesn't care.
Stick with me, mama, I'll tell ya surely,
One day I'm gonna be a millionaire.
Well, all I have is paper,
No nickel, and no copper.
I'll look down upon ya from my brand new helicopter,
I'll be countin' all my pesos, countin' all my franks,
And I'll never cry again,
Or worry bout the bank.
Police pull me over, I'm in trouble.
Bank's got my phone ringin' off the hook.
Better give 'em somethin' on the double.
How can I pay 'em, if all I do is cook?
But one day, mama, when I'm countin' all my dollars,
And we're laid out on the beach without a care,
I will slap my knee and I'll start to holler,
"I told ya yo baby gon' be a millionaire!"
Caviar for breakfast, around noon.
Fine champagne, and escargot at night.
We'll be wild, crazy as a loon,
All our worries will be our of sight.
Cos the bill collectors all will stop their fussin',
Maybe tomorrow, maybe in a year.
Don't you worry mama, don't you have no fear,
I told ya yo baby's gonna be a millionaire!

Becky Lynn Blanca Los Angeles, California
The style is American roots music: jazz, blues, sad hillbilly goodness— traditional tunes with the air of old LA punk casting a shadow throughout. Sometimes brimming with joy, oftentimes sorrow, this traveling raconteuse will leave you with a full and tender heart. ... more
