Montgomery Gentry — For The Money lyrics

Lyrics

Daddy almost made a living with eighty acres and a plow
He could have bought that place twice over working for someone in town
Ah, but you should have seen him
In his fields at harvest time
You¦ Ѕ swear the gates of heaven opened
He was standing first in line
You can¦ ° be in it for the money
Money comes and money goes
You can¦ ° be in it for the money
Oh, you gotta 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 whole right through my heart
You can¦ ° be in it for the money
Money comes and money goes
You can¦ ° be in it for the money
Oh, you gotta satisfy your soul
You know everybody¦ Ї got a purpose
From mending bones to tending bar
You might say that I found mine
When I wrap my hands around this guitar
I still wonder if I¦ ¦ crazy
Trying to bring a dream to life
But I look forward to tomorrow
And I sleep pretty good at night
You can¦ ° be in it for the money
Money comes and money goes
You can¦ ° be in it for the money
Oh, you gotta satisfy your soul
You can¦ ° be in it for the money
You can¦ ° be in it for the money
