Put Your Money Away

(album: Children Of The Morning - 1966)

I could go a-running, jumping, reaching for the sky (reaching for the sky)
That's all that I thought that it would take to buy your mind (take to buy your mind)
Then one day, I looked the other way

And, hey, did you ever see my town at sundown, all the hills around
Hey, put your money away. Hey, hey, put your money away. Hey, hey, put your money away

When somebody comes a-calling, knocking on my door (knocking on my door)
Trying hard to sell me something that I have no use for (I have no use for)
I push the fool inside. I take a look outside

And, hey, did you ever see my town at sundown, all the hills around
Hey, put your money away. Hey, hey, put your money away. Hey, hey, put your money away

I could go a-running, jumping, reaching for the sky (reaching for the sky)
That's all that I thought that it would take to buy your mind (take to buy your mind)
Then one day, I looked the other way
And, hey, did you ever see my town at sundown, all the hills around
Hey, put your money away. Hey, hey, put your money away. Hey, hey, put your money away
