Lyrics
Tired of being broke, living day by day
But working for a living, just don't seem to pay
I got my old guitar, gone and tuned down half a step
I played a lick in G, and I wrote a song that sells
Cuz I don't do it for the girls, I don't do it for the fame
I don't do it for my mama, I don't do it for my name
I don't do it for the world, I don't do it for your sake
I don't do it to be real, I don't do it to be fake
I just do it for the money!
I just do it for the money!
I just do it for the money!
I just do it for the money baby
Met a girl in Austin, she said "heard you're in a band
If you can change your accent, think my folks would understand
Just change your look and change your name, and then you will belong
And if you really love me, then you'll put me in your song"
I don't do it for the girls, I don't do it for the fame
I don't do it for my mama, I don't do it for my name
I don't do it for the world, I don't do it for your sake
I don't do it to be real, I don't do it to be fake
I just do it for the money!
I just do it for the money!
I just do it for the money!
I just do it for the money!
There she goes and she walks away, but she knows that I won't stay
Too far ahead to be behind, but that girl ain't on my mind
There she goes and she walks away, but she knows that I won't stay
Too far ahead to be behind, but that girl ain't on my mind
Cuz I don't do it for the girls, I don't do it for the fame
I don't do it for my mama, I don't do it for my name
I don't do it for the world, I don't do it for your sake
I don't do it to be real, I don't do it to be fake
I just do it for the money!
I just do it for the money!
I just do it for the money!
I just do it for the money!
