Written:Rivers Rutherford/Sam Tate/Annie Tate | |
Ah, let me tell you a little story about my family | |
Daddy almost made a living with eighty acres and a plow | |
He could've bought that place twice over working for someone in town | |
Ah, but you should've seen him in his fields at harvest time | |
He'd swear the gates of heaven opened and he was standing first in line | |
You can't be in it for the money | |
Money comes and money goes | |
You can't be in it for the money | |
Oh, you got to satisfy your soul | |
I grabbed the world when I turned eighteen | |
I turned it over and I shook it hard | |
I filled my pockets up with money | |
But it burned a hole right through my heart | |
You can't be in it for the money | |
Money comes and money goes | |
You can't be in it for the money | |
Oh, you got to satisfy your soul | |
You know everybody's got a purpose | |
From mending bones to tending farms | |
You might say that I found mine | |
When I wrap my hands around this guitar | |
And I still wonder if I'm crazy | |
Trying to bring a dream to life | |
But I look forward to tomorrow | |
And I sleep pretty good at night | |
You can't be in it for the money | |
Money comes and money goes | |
You can't be in it for the money | |
Oh, you got to satisfy your soul | |
You can't be in it for the money | |
You can't be in it for the money |
