Easy Money

(album: Closing In On The Fire - 1998)

I didn't rob no bank or break no teller machine
I didn't mug nobody or steal from a widow's child
But I'll take your money and do a little dance and sing
But to tell the truth, I'm only gonna keep it a while

[CHORUS:]
Easy money, easy come and easy go
Easy money, easy come, where it goes, I don't know

Never could hold on when anything wasn't mine
Trouble's all it ever got me into
And knowing that I'd just be wasting time
Thinking I could ever hold onto you

[CHORUS:]
Easy loving, easy come and easy go
Easy loving, easy come, where it goes, I don't know

I got a two-wide trailer on the banks of the Black Water Draw
Back at the house it trickles down to a stream
I ain't breaking my back and I sure ain't breaking the law
Living on mud bud's a mainstay country cuisine

[CHORUS:]
Easy living, easy come and easy go
Easy living, easy come, where it goes, I don't know

[CHORUS:]
Easy loving, easy come and easy go
Easy money, easy come, where it goes, I don't know
