lyrics

"It's Not Money"

It's alright. You're right, you know.
You told me, "Let go, honey."
I tried, tried, tried.
It's so hard when I hold on, baby.
When I hold on, I hold tight, tight, tight.

It's not money. You can't rent or buy it.
It's not money, so why should I?

Think of those who have wronged you, honey.
And your list grows. It grows so long.
You know as well as I do, baby, when it goes well, it's gone, gone, gone.

It's not money. You can't rent or buy it.
It's not money, so why should I?

When that bullet goes through my head, it tears the back out, baby.
Puts me to bed. When that bullet goes through my heart, I die.
When I die, they'll reach & shut my eyes.
That's when, honey, you'll still be on my mind.

You're so funny. You are, you know.

You know what the worst of it is?
It's when you find out something you think is yours.
And then they come & take it away
And they drag it into the night to stay.

When that bullet goes through my head, it tears the back out, baby.
Puts me to bed. When that bullet goes through my heart, I die.
