For The Money Lyrics - My Town - Montgomery Gentry

oh, let me tell you a little story about my family 

daddy almost made a livin' 

with eighty acres and a plow 

he could have bought that place twice over 

workin' for someone in town 

oh, but you should have seen him 

in his fields at harvest time 

he'd swear the gates of heaven opened 

and he was standin' first in line

you can't be 

you can't be in it for the money 

(for the money) 

can't be 

money comes and money goes 

you can't be 

you can't be in it for the money 

oh you've gotta satisfy your soul 

i grabbed the world when i turned eighteen 

i turned it over and i shook it hard 

i filled my pockets up with money 

but it burned a hole right through my heart 

(chorus) 

you know everybody's got a purpose 

from mendin' bones to tendin' bars 

you might say that ive found mine 

when i wrap my hands around this guitar 

Photos 

and i still wonder if im crazy 

tryin to bring a dream to life 

but i look forward to tomorrow 

and i sleep pretty good at night 

(chorus) 

can't be 

you can't be in it for the money 

(for the money) 

can't be 

you can't be in it for the money 

(for the money)
