I sold my last hard bible

Just to pay my bills

I called my mother

To reserve me in her will

And the pay I'm getting every Thursday night

Well it just don't seem enough

Well money can buy me a hell of a lot

But it sure won't buy me love

Well I brought me a car

And I brought me a roadtrain

Car won't go

Trains to slow

So I found me a mansion

On the highest hillside

Bigger then this town

But it don't feel like home



I sold my last hard bible

Just to pay my bills

I called my mother

To reserve me in her will

And the pay I'm getting every Thursday night

Well it just don't seem enough

Well money can buy me a hell of a lot

But it sure won't buy me love



I spent my cash

On a brand new heartache

I spent my time

Trying to make it back

He took my heart

And he took my savings

He took the train

And left me on the track



I sold my last hard bible

Just to pay my bills

I called my mother

To reserve me in her will

And the pay I'm getting every Thursday night

Well it just don't seem enough

Well money can buy me a hell of a lot

But it sure won't buy me love
