Ain't No Money

(album: Somewhere In The Stars - 1982)

Everyday now I hear people say
My ship is sailing could be any day
Any day now it might not feel so blue
My baby tells me stop and look around
If you ain't careful, Hon, you're trouble bound
Run home for cover and you might not find none there
He say there ain't no money in this running around
Can't make money staying at home
And there ain't no future in the way that it feels today
Baby there ain't no money
Baby there ain't no money
Baby there ain't no money in the ones that you really love

I try and tell 'em, baby, straight and true
No love or money tells you what to do
You're born to ramble baby that's what I was too
Just breaking even even if I lose
Ol' lucky seven put his hold on you
I got your number baby any way you move
Baby there ain't no money and that's for sure
Ain't no money behind no doors
And there ain't no trouble that a poor boy won't go through
Baby there ain't no money
Baby there ain't no money
Baby there ain't no money in the ones you really love
(No running around just staying at home)
