PLAY FOR THE MONEY Lyrics

It took some time cause I'm a slow learner

A vision I had was on the back burner

I became a man I got the fever

I made the beat my hands were the levers

I had a direction, with my good friends

Trying to play in a killer rock 'n' roll band

We'll play for the money

We'll play for our souls

We'll play for the money

We'll play for the money

We played in the morning and all through the day

Rehearsed in a cellar we loved to play

No matter the cold the wind or the rain

We were livin a bands life in every way

Then comes the nighttime, and we're still rockin'

Nothing can stop us when the Marshall is humming so right

We'll play for the money

We'll play for our souls

We'll play for the money

We'll play for the money

Bitching 'bout the space

The boys put me in my place

My mates doing their part

Perfecting our art, perfecting our art

As it was back then and still is today

How to make best friends this is the way

Some are dead and some still alive

We had a band just us five

I had a direction, with my good friends

Trying to play in a killer rock 'n' roll band

We'll play for the money

We'll play for our souls

We'll play for the money

We'll play for the money

We'll play for the money

We'll play for our souls

We'll play for the money

We'll play for the money
