As a direct result of this song I have always referred to any denomination over $5 as "big face money." Sometimes just "face money." As in, going through the hat full of tips to split with the driver after running a tour, "All right, we got some face money tonight."

I wonder if this song was inspired by the redesign of $100 bill that occured in 1996. Mule Variations was released in early 1999, so the timing is about right.
