[Verse 1] When a company makes profit at the end of the year They've got a choice to make, let me make it clear Keep the money inside to grow and expand Or share it with owners who helped take a stand [Pre-Chorus] Those shareholders invested, put their faith in the dream Now the company's deciding what those profits will mean [Chorus] Dividends are cash flowing back to you Quarterly payments when the company's due D-I-V-I-D-E-N-D-S Sharing the wealth, that's how investors say yes From corporate profits straight to your account Every little payment, every dollar counts [Verse 2] Mature companies with steady cash flow Often choose dividends to let shareholders know "We're stable and strong, here's your piece of the pie" While younger firms reinvest to reach for the sky [Pre-Chorus] It's all about balance, what the future will bring Distribute today or invest in the spring [Chorus] Dividends are cash flowing back to you Quarterly payments when the company's due D-I-V-I-D-E-N-D-S Sharing the wealth, that's how investors say yes From corporate profits straight to your account Every little payment, every dollar counts [Bridge] Some pay high yields to attract income seekers Others pay none and let growth be the teacher Ex-dividend dates and payment schedules too It's all part of learning what dividends do [Final Chorus] Dividends are cash flowing back to you Quarterly rewards when your stocks come through D-I-V-I-D-E-N-D-S Building your wealth as your portfolio grows From boardroom decisions to your bank account Every dividend payment, let the dollars mount [Outro] Profit sharing wisdom, that's the dividend way Cash in your pocket at the end of the day
