  • Official audio for Dennis Brown's 1978 hit version of the classic, 'Money In My Pocket'
    Originally a Jamaican hit for Dennis Brown in 1972, the self-penned 'Money In My Pocket' was recut by the singer-songwriter six years later, with the updated Joe Gibbs-produced version proving even more successful, breaching the UK pop charts on 3 March 1979 before peaking five weeks later.

    MONEY IN MY POCKET LYRICS
    written by Dennis Brown
    Oh yeah, yeah, Mm-mmm yeah
    Money in my pocket but I just can't get no love
    Money in my pocket but I just can't get no love
    I'm praying for a girl to be my own
    Soon you said she coming but I don't believe a word she said
    Cause she run away and left me one rainy day
    She made me had in mind that her love would never die
    And now I'm alone, so alone, so alone, yeah, yeah
    Money in my pocket but I just can't get no love, oh no
    Money in my pocket but I just can't get no love
    The love I had in mind was very, very hard to find, oh
    It's hard for a man to live without a woman
    And a woman needs a man to cling to
    You'll see what love can do after making me feel blue
    Ain't that a shame, woah baby
    Ain't that a shame, yeah, yeah, yeah
    To make me feel blue, woah yeah, yeah
    Ain't that a shame, baby
    Ain't that a shame...

    This is the song that started it all for me. I was playing GTA 4, cruising around listening to the Blue Ark Reggae radio station in the game. This was one of the songs that came on. I remember thinking, "Man, this is... this is pretty good.". That was 13 years ago and I've been strictly reggae all day since then. Dennis Emmanuel Brown, thank you and rest peacefully.

    It’s been a summer of Dennis Brown music during the pandemic of 2020. This music has gotten me through many, many summer evenings, just looking up at the stars, and zoning out to the sweet sounds of the Crown Prince.
