Lyrics All for Money - Greensky Bluegrass

All for Money

What if we had done it all for money
And nobody ever even really cared
Who can you pay to come and clear it all away
To start fresh and earn it all again
Maybe it’s something like Elvis on a big screen
And someone lied in your dreams
If you’re gonna put the hard times on poor choices
You gotta put the good ones on luck
You better save something for to get you smarter
For when you’re dumb, done and all out of work
Hope it’s not like Darwin and his silly ideas
They’re only right if they believe
How could the top feel so empty
Get to the point, nothing left but to fall
They used to love this, why don’t they like it
When I’m, just trying to grow
Could be like sending people into outer space
With no real finish to the race, the race
Making money out of nonsense (nonsense…)
And living large off the useless (useless…)
Now I am surrounded (surrounded…)
Feeling like a captive (captive)
Spent too much time looking for the right song to sing
It matters more the love it brings
But if you need a voice, I’m yours, friend
For something better in the end
What if we had done it all for money
And nobody ever even really cared
Who can you pay to come and clear it all away
To start fresh and earn it all again
Probably life’s like Dorothy in a weird dream
And nothing’s as hard as it may seem
