Damn The Money Lyrics - Singles - Steve Azar

Johnny Gunn he's a guitar player 

Makin' next to nothin' at a bar nowheres 

He says, "Damn the money 

Damn the money" 

Counts his tips, buys a shot of booze 

Grabs a lucky strike, lights another fuse 

And says, "Damn the money 

Damn the money" 

Well, he dreams about some place warm and sunny 

Livin' in the land of milk and honey 

Well, brother ain't life funny 

Damn the money 

Rether Brown she's a bank teller 

Got the green in her eyes and the green on her fingers 

She says, "Damn the money 

Yeah damn the money" 

Shakes her head, counts another grand 

While the hundreds fly through her poor little hands 

She says, "Damn the money 

Damn the money" 

Well, she dreams about some place warm and sunny 

Livin' in the land of milk and honey 

Well, sister ain't life funny 

Damn the money 

It sure seems like so much life's spent 

Searchin' for the Promise Land 

But the time that's lost worryin' 'bout the cost 

Will never come back again and it breaks us in the end 

Damn the money 

Now I'm drivin' alone down this long highway 

Thinkin' 'bout the dream I let slip away 

I say, "Damn the money 

Yeah, damn the money" 

Now I know how she used to feel 

When I was gone too long tryin' to close some deal 

I say, "Damn the money 

Damn the money" 

Callin' home from some place warm and sunny 

Runnin' from the land of milk and honey 

The way we look at life is funny 

Damn the money 

Damn the money 

Damn the money 

Yeah, damn that money, yeah
