Ain't no money

(rodney crowell)


Everyday now i hear people say
My ship is sailin' 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 runnin' around
Can't make money stayin' 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 breakin' 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)
