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, honey, troublebound

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, no money tells you what to do

You’re born to ramble, baby, that’s what I was too

Just breaking even even if I lose

Old 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

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 that you really love

Baby, there ain’t no money in the ones that you really love

No running around

Just staying at home
