Gold Digger by Kanye West feat. Jamie Foxx is featured in Showmance, the second episode of Season One. It is sung by Artie, Mercedes, and Will.

In hopes to get the Glee Club more motivated, Will decides to sing this song, while helping them practice for the assembly. During the performance, a cutaway scene shows Terri and her family, looking at houses, implying that the song is indirectly about her.

Lyrics[]

Mercedes:
She take my money, when I'm in need
Yeah she's a triflin' friend indeed
Oh she's a gold digger way over town
That dig's on me.

(New Directions) Will:
(She give me money) Now I ain't sayin' she’s a gold digger
(When I'm in need) But she ain't messin' with no broke broke
(She give me money) Now I ain't sayin' she’s a gold digger
(When I'm in need) But she ain't messin' with no broke broke
(I gotta leave) Get down, girl, go 'head, get down
(I gotta leave) Get down, girl, go 'head, get down
(I gotta leave) Get down, girl, go 'head, get down
(I gotta leave) Get down, girl, go 'head

Will (Artie):
(She give me money) Cutie the bomb
Met her at a beauty salon (When I'm in need)
With a baby Louis Vuitton
Under her under arm (She give me money)
She said, "I can tell you rock
I can tell by your charm (When I'm in need)
Far as girls you got a flock
I can tell by your charm (I gotta leave)
And your arm but I'm lookin' for the one," (I gotta leave)
Have you seen her?

New Directions:
No, we ain't seen her

(New Directions) Will:
(She give me money) Now I ain't sayin' she’s a gold digger
(When I'm in need) But she ain't messin' with no broke broke
(She give me money) Now I ain't sayin' she’s a gold digger
(When I'm in need) But she ain't messin' with no broke broke
(I gotta leave) Get down, girl, go 'head, get down (Get, get, get, get down, oh)
(I gotta leave) Get down, girl, go 'head, get down
(I gotta leave) Get down, girl, go 'head, get down
(I gotta leave) Get down, girl, go 'head (Get, get, get, get down, oh)

Will (Mercedes):
(She give me money) Eighteen years, Eighteen years
(When I'm in need) She’s got one of your kids, got you for eighteen years
(She give me money) I know somebody payin' child support for one of his kids
(When I'm in need) His baby mama's car crib is bigger than his
(I gotta leave) You will see him on TV, any given Sunday
(I gotta leave) Win the Super Bowl and drive off in a Hyundai
(I gotta leave) She was supposed to buy your shorty Tyco with your money
(I gotta leave) She went to the doctor, got lipo with your money
(She give me money) She walkin' around lookin' like Michael with your money
(When I'm in need) Shoulda' got that insured, GEICO for your money, your money
(She give me money) If you ain't no punk
(When I'm in need) Holla we want pre-nup

New Directions:
We want a pre-nup, yeah!

(New Directions) Will:
(She give me money) Now I ain't sayin' she’s a gold digger
(When I'm in need) But she ain't messin' with no broke broke
(She give me money) Now I ain't sayin' she’s a gold digger
(When I'm in need) But she ain't messin' with no broke broke
(I gotta leave) Get down, girl, go 'head, get down (Get, get, get, get down oh)
