lyrics

For The Money
by RJ HARPER

Verse 1
It's been a long week, working that 9 to 5
Just enough to pay the bills and keep us alive
Never needed much, prefer to live a life free and slow
Don't wanna die with regrets and wish we woulda knowns

Chorus

So we'll start with a case of beer and gas in the trunk
Work 40 hours til we get drunk
Find a home town girl with lips that taste like honey
We ain't living for the money
No, we ain't living for the money

Verse 2

We try to keep it honest, never take more than we need
Embrace the small things...ain't nothing guaranteed
We sure ain't getting rich, got no shortage of hopes and dreams
You could fill a life twice over with all there is to see

Chorus 2

Bridge

We could live our lives the way we've supposed to
We could live our lives the way we're told to
Let's take a chance on living the way we want to
Take a chance on a dream you hope to come true

Chorus 3
