Lyrics: It's that time of year
Everybody getting hungry
It's that time of year
Tax Season
I said Tax Season
I want that money all in my hand
I'm gonna take it from the man

March
March is when we march to the top and take what's due
March
March
March is the time we get ready to plan
We're gonna make it
If you got cashmore
