Wild Bill
Nothin
Honey, you're too good for me
It's your heart
All you ever wanted
Moonless night
For the money
Good night
Me, lovin' you
Shades of gray
Time traveler
What good would it do?
Younger, older woman
Nag, nag, nag
I don't know how to love you
Maybe next time

"For the money" by James C. Clemetson

Return to "Folk'n'Roll"
"For the money"

Everybody's got to eat
and you want to have a bed
And the clothes upon your back
and a roof over your head

But you don't want to believe
that you are a foolish man
So you tell yourself
you've done the best you can

Chorus:
This is just another moment
you don't want to look away
If today was all you had
would you do it for the money?


JC photoEvery night you show your faith
when you crawl into your bed
You believe that you'll awake
That you will lift up your head

And you take your breath for granted
as well as everything you see
Then you do what you don't believe in
for the money

Chorus:
This is just another moment
you don't want to look away
If today was all you had
would you do it for the money?



Next song
Shade blue
Nothin'
All you ever wanted
Good night
Wild Bill
Honey, you're too good for me
Shades of gray
Water falls
Everyday blues
Be with me
Maybe next time

Broken wing

Don't call it love
