i sold my last hard bible
just to pay my bills
i called my mother
to reserve me in her will
and the pay i'm getting every thursday night
well it just don't seem enough
well money can buy me a hell of a lot
but it sure won't buy me love
well i brought me a car
and i brought me a roadtrain
car won't go
trains to slow
so i found me a mansion
on the highest hillside
bigger then this town
but it don't feel like home
i sold my last hard bible
just to pay my bills
i called my mother
to reserve me in her will
and the pay i'm getting every thursday night
well it just don't seem enough
well money can buy me a hell of a lot
but it sure won't buy me love
i spent my cash
on a brand new heartache
i spent my time
trying to make it back
he took my heart
and he took my savings
he took the train
and left me on the track
i sold my last hard bible
just to pay my bills
i called my mother
to reserve me in her will
and the pay i'm getting every thursday night
well it just don't seem enough
well money can buy me a hell of a lot
but it sure won't buy me love |
