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 shit walks and everything I own you could put in a box
 All my money ever said to me was so long
 All my bull shit 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 kill 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
 Repeat Chorus
