Making Money

[Verse 1]
Making money, it isn't easy
And it sure won't make you happy
So I think it's funny
We're so concerned with making money

[Verse 2]
And money won't keep folks from grieving
And it won't stop love from leaving
So here's my two cents
What's the use in making money

[Chorus]
And I know that life ain't cheap
And not all good things are free
But there is no enough and no too much
And it seems so strange to me
I just think it's funny
We're so concerned with making money

[Verse 3]
I make my living singing love songs
That I made up 'cause I love songs
But folks believe 'em
So I'm receiving paper money

[Verse 4]
Don't get me wrong, I love my lady
And I probably wouldn't trade her
But life's no better
With debts or debtors making money

[Chorus]
And I know that life ain't cheap
And not all good things are free
But there is no enough and no too much
And it seems so strange to me
I just think it's funny
We're so concerned with making money

[Verse 5]
Everybody's got their reasons
Finer wines or fairer seasons
If we're truthful
We know we're fools for making money
