Making Music for Money

[00:08.30] I woke up this morning
[00:11.04] I was tired as I could be
[00:15.54] I guess I was counting my money
[00:19.16] When I should have been counting sheep
[00:23.50] My agent, he just called me
[00:26.78] And then told me what I should be
[00:30.81] He said that I should make my music for money
[00:34.70] Instead of making my music for me
[00:38.16] And I said I know that it may sound funny
[00:42.94] But money don't mean nothin' to me
[00:46.69] I won't make my music for money
[00:50.59] I'm gonna make my music for me
[00:56.73] Now people only like the love songs
[01:00.70] Rock and rollin' not too long
[01:04.26] He said, kid you got to be commerical
[01:08.29] If you wanna turn the people on
[01:12.57] Now turning on the people
[01:15.99] What a beautiful place to be
[01:20.04] But if I spend my time makin' memorable rhyme
[01:24.70] Who's gonna turn on me?
[01:27.11] And I said I know that it may sound funny
[01:32.29] But money don't mean nothin' to me
[01:35.71] I won't make my music for money
[01:40.02] I'm gonna make my music for me
[01:43.22]
[02:05.61] Now, I went up the country
[02:09.33] And I'll tell you about the scene
[02:13.55] I found a place with much charm and much grace
[02:17.20] Was untouched by the music machine
[02:21.52] The people where havin' a good time
[02:25.52] Everybody singing along
[02:29.35] And nobody cared if nobody gave
[02:33.23] One more penny for singin' a song
[02:36.26] And I said I know that it may sound funny
[02:41.40] But money don't mean nothin' to me
[02:44.99] I won't make my music for money
[02:48.85] I'm gonna make my music for me
[02:52.78] I said I know that it may sound funny, yeah
[02:57.19] Money don't mean nothin' to me
[03:00.76] I won't make my music for money
[03:04.75] I'm gonna make my music for, make my music for
[03:09.44] Make my music for me
[03:12.55]
