Micky & The Motorcars - Ain't in It for the Money lyrics

Written by: Pinto Bennett She was hangin at the hard n fast saloon he was due to go on break real soon she set the trap and she laid out all the bait He had a room at the hungry heart motel he was a guitar picker so what the hell She knew he could hardly wait She gave him a look as he stepped off the stage Walked up to the bar took ahold of his hand She was sippin on a drink that some poor cowboy'd bought She told him he was better than Willie or Haggard She was only one payment behind on her jag Then she rolled her eyes and asked him what he thought And he said Money talks and bull sh** walks and everything I own you could put in a box All my money ever said to me was so long All my bull sh** ever did was get me walked on And left me for singin the same ol song Lovin her right And doin her wrong...Baby Chorus: Everybody wants to be somebody Everybody wants to have somebody...But please Listen to me honey Hey Im livin proof that love will k** ya And I aint the one thats gonna fulfill your needs I aint in it for the money Im not in it for the money
