You know I loved the sugar plums
You gave to me last year
And I'm all stocked on Christmas socks
And oils for my beard
I know it's fun to ponder on
The Pinterest perfect gift
But there's just one thing on my list
(One thing on my list)

I want cold hard cash for Christmas
(Cold hard cash)
Don't spend your money to show that you love me
Just throw it in a bag
I want cold hard cash for Christmas
(Cold hard)
If you're looking for something that I gotta have
It's cold hard cash

Now listen, friend

You're making a list of all of the gifts that you need to get
(Why you gotta work so hard?)
Well, I guarantee I'm gonna be the easiest
(Oh, I don't even need a card)
Skip the lines, save your time, and save mine too
No disrespect, I just hate being left
With store credit I don't wanna use

I want cold hard cash for Christmas
(Cold hard cash)
Don't spend your money to show that you love me
Just throw it in a bag
I want cold hard cash for Christmas
(Cold hard)
If you're looking for something that I gotta have
It's cold (cold) hard (hard) cash

Come on, come on, I need it, please
The reason for the season

I don't want a lot this year
No need to shop around
You can spread your Christmas cheer
Direct to my account
(Direct to my account)
