lyrics

8. (American) Money Blues
Roderick/Ashford (Clean Slate Music/Sweet Southern Music-BMI)

Money got a hold on me
And it won't let go
Money got a hold on me
And it won't let go
I don't know and I can't explain
How my spending comes out
To more than my pay
Earning my keep turn me
Grey someday
Money blues are here to stay

Credit ain't no doggone good
I misuse it so
Credit ain't no doggone good
I misuse it so
The man says to buy it on time
He says you wont spend a dime
Honey look at the hole we're in
Sell my soul just to start again

Money it ain't worth a dime
If you lose your friend
Money it ain't worth a dime
If you lose your friend
Honey I lost mine
Whinin all the time
Takin' a line just to make amends
'Cause It ain' worth a dime
If you lose your friends

People it can bring you down
And you dread it so
People it can bring you down
And you dread it so
The man's gonna take away
What I owe
I never have enough wish I could
Make it grow
I'd plant money trees in a row
Sit and watch my money grow
