It's Only Money Lyrics

Tom Flannery It's Only Money

I want a houseI want a car
move to an island
buy a bar
want 40 acres
and a mule
send my kids
to private school
but I'd better
move slow
got laid off
an hour ago
it's only money
it's only money
it's only money
it's only money
that's what I keep telling myself
it's only money
I want a port
in every storm
a fireplace
to keep me warm
big screen TV
and a dish
enough candles
to make a wish

but the man
stuck it to me
and now the bank
won't let me be
it's only money
it's only money
ATM card
is a wreck
how can I be overdrawn
I still have checks
I want a carport
I want a moat
one for my RV
one for my boat
want my name
recognized
don't want to open
the booby prize
but all that stuff
will have to wait
looks like I made
a big mistake
it's only money
it's only money
it's only money
it's only money
that's what I keep telling myself
it's only money
