It's Only Money - Lyrics - Van Zant

Grandpa used to keep his money buried 3 feet deep in Mason jars He forgot more times than I where he kept his stash out in the yard He told us before he died, "boys don't do what I did" Save enough to get you by, and go spend all the rest It's only money That's all it is Harder to make it Than it is to spend Can't take it with ya So don't let it get ya It's only money The waiter said our featured wine tonight's a California merlot May I suggest a calamari, oysters, or the escargot She looked at me and smiled and in those blue eyes I got lost I said bring us one of each of them, I don't care what it costs It's only money That's all it is Harder to make it Than it is to spend Can't take it with ya So don't let it get ya It's only money OH It's only money She found that diamond bracelet in the window of a jewelry store downtown She said I like the way it sparkles as she kissed me and I pulled my wallet out If it makes her happy, I don't care how much they charge I still got a closet full of grandpa's mason jars It's only money That's all it is Harder to make it Than it is to spend Can't take it with ya So don't let it get ya It's only money Oh! It's only money (It's only money) That's all it is (That's all it is) Harder to make it (Harder to make it) Than it is to spend (Than it is to spend) Can't take it with ya (Can't take it with ya) So don't let it get ya (Don't let it get ya) It's only money, money, money, money, money OH It's only money (Money money money) It's only money (Money money money) It's only money (Money money money) It's only money (Money money money) It's only money Oh it's only money
