Mini introduced Meghan Trainor, a talented singer/song writer, to me a few weeks ago. I’ve been listening to her music all the time since. Trainor has a positive, confident, welcoming energy about her. I admire the unconventional lyrics and melodies she writes. While my Pandora station plays her songs as I plug away at the PACS station reading MSK radiographs or blogging, I realized that her song “Better When I’m Dancing” lend itself perfectly to my remix “Better When I’m Debt-free” 🙂

Mini & I will record a music video singing our debt-free remix in the future–since we both love debt-free-ness, music, and Meghan Trainor!

DWM’s lyrics are bolded (original lyrics in parentheses).


not dancingDWM remix, Meghan Trainor – Better When I’m Debt Free

“Better When I’m Debt-Free”

Don’t think about it
Just move your money (body)
Listen to the music
Sing, oh, ey, oh
Just save those pay-checks (move those left feet)
Go ahead, get debt-free (dancing)
Anyone can do it
Sing, oh, ey, oh

Show the world you’re no spender (you’ve got the fire)
Feel your net-worth (the rhythm) getting larger (louder)

net worth getting larger
Feel your net-worth getting larger.

Show the bank (room) what you can save (do)
Prove to them you got the moves
I don’t know about you,

dancing

But I feel better when I’m debt-free (dancing), yeah, yeah
Better when I’m debt-free (dancing), yeah, yeah
And we can do this together
I bet you feel better when you’re debt-free (dancing), yeah, yeah

When you finally get done (let go)
And you shed that burden (slay that solo)
Cause you listen to the music
Sing, oh, ey, oh
‘Cause you’re confident, babe
And you make your cash grow (hips sway)
We knew that you could do it
Sing, oh, ey, oh

Show the world you’re no spender (you’ve got the fire)
Feel your net-worth (the rhythm) getting larger (louder)
Show the bank (room) what you can save (do)
Prove to them you got the moves
I don’t know about you,

debt free together

But I feel better when I’m debt-free (dancing), yeah, yeah
Better when I’m debt-free (dancing), yeah, yeah
And we can do this together
I bet you feel better when you’re debt-free (dancing), yeah, yeah

I feel better when I’m debt-free
I’m better when I’m debt-free, aye, oh ey oh

Feel better when I’m debt-free, yeah, yeah
Better when I’m debt-free, yeah, yeah,
Don’t you know
We can do this together
Bet you feel better when you’re debt-free, yeah, yeah

(you got the moves, babe)

I feel better when I’m debt-free
I’m better when I’m debt-free, hey
Feel better when I’m, yeah, yeah


I hope this can brings us a lighthearted & upbeat determination to get debt-free.

Achieving financial goals can be fun.

Thank you for taking your financial destiny seriously.
