    Unhappy Need help! 70s-80s funk/disco song about Money

    This song has been stuck in my head for a year and countless internet searches cannot help me. It's not by the O'Jays. That song I know.

    I vaguely know a few words and can sing the tune but that's it.
    The song spells out M-O-N-E-Y in the chorus. "M O N E Y, it'll get you anything you wanna buy"

    I'm probably getting the lyrics partially wrong in vital ways that are keeping me from getting results via google.
    There's also background female singers (this part I'm completely butchering) "gotta get the money, gotta get the money, need that cash cash, gotta have it"

    It's a group of male singers I believe (probably black although that shouldn't matter). "Money, oh money, gotta get my hands on some"

    Can anyone help? Or point me in the right direction? Thanks!!!!

    "For The Love of Money" by The O'Jays (1973)

    "Money, money, money, money, money
    Some people got to have it
    Some people really need it"
    Them that can, do; them that can't... memorize Artist and Title
