The Price of Everything

They say it doesn't buy you love no way

But it keeps the wolves at bay

Stack it high watch it grow so tall

When you're broke the world feels small

Money talks and it calls my name

Running this race in the cash game

Gold and green it shines so bright

Chasing dreams under neon lights

Coins in my pocket weighing me down

Bills in the air let 'em fly around

Where it lands no one knows

But the greed it always grows

Cold and shiny but it fills the hole

Built my palace sold my soul

Counting zeros I'm staying late

Nothing's free in this cold estate

Money talks and it calls my name

Running this race in the cash game

Gold and green it shines so bright

Chasing dreams under neon lights

In the end we all pay the cost

What I chased might be what I lost

But here I stand with my treasure hoard

The price of everything is all I afford
