In It For The Money

Woohoowoohoo woo wooh who

Woohoowoohoo woo wooh who

One night in New Orleans I met a painted lady
She swore that she knew just how to save me
She said it wouldn 't take long
just to do you a minute
Believe me boy you won't soon forget it
But I was too dead and I told her no
She grabbed my hand and she wouldn' t let go
She said listen here boy
we aint that different you and me

And its human nature been that way since Cain and Able

If theres bread in your pocket
it dont matter how you got it
As long as theres food on the table.
Yeah and sooner or latter
your gonna figure it out honey

If you aint in it for love
your in it for the money

Ahh your in it for the money

I met and old-timer behind Tootsies Lounge
In the shadow of the Ryman as the sun went down.
He said theyll steal your soul in a radio song
They say you want fame but it wont last long
He said you'll be tempted but you better say no
He grabbed my hand and he wouldnt let go
He said cowboy we aint that different you and me

Yeah its human nature been that way since Hank and Waylon

You put fame in your pocket
but as soon as you got it your star is already fadin'
Yeah and sooner or latter this old town sure seems funny

And you aint in it for love
your in it for the money

For the money

Everybodys tempted

Well everybodys tempted

Well have you been tempted
yeah yeah yeah

And its human naturebeen that way since Cain and Able

If theres bread in your pocket
it dont matter how you got it
As long as theres food on the table.
Yeah and sooner or latter
you better ask yourself honey

Do you do what you do for love
Do you do what you do for love

And if you aint in it for love
Then your in it for the money

Its all about the money
