money tree

[verse] Well, I grew up in a small town Where dreams were big but the pockets were brown Mama worked hard just to make ends meet Daddy said son you gotta plant your own seeds [pre-chorus] But I was young and wild chasing after the stars Thought I could find a fortune in a rusty old car With a heart full of hope and a head full of dreams I never listened close to what they really mean [chorus] Mama and daddy always said Money doesn’t grow on trees But I’m out here searching for a golden leaf Hoping for a little luck, just a sign ‘Cause I’m tired of living this 9-to-5 grind Oh, I’m planting my wishes watering my dreams But mama and daddy always said Money doesn’t grow on trees [verse] Now I’m working nights I’m working days Counting every penny in so many ways I see the neighbors driving shiny new rides While I’m just trying to keep my head above the tide [pre-chorus] But every time I feel like giving up the fight I hear their voices they echo through the night “Son, keep your faith don’t let it fade away There’s more to this life than the cash you can pay” [chorus] Mama and daddy always said Money doesn’t grow on trees But I’m out here searching for a golden leaf Hoping for a little luck,just a sign Cause I’m tired of living this 9-to-5 grind Oh, I’m planting my wishes watering my dreams But mama and daddy always said Money doesn’t grow on trees [bridge] So I’ll keep on dreaming I’ll keep on trying With every sunset I’ll keep on flying I know that love is worth more than gold And the stories we share are the riches we hold [chorus] Mama and daddy always said Money doesn’t grow on trees But I’m out here searching for a golden leaf Hoping for a little luck, just a sign Cause I’m tired of living this 9-to-5 grind Oh, I’m planting my wishes watering my dreams But mama and daddy always said Money doesn’t grow on trees [outro] So I’ll keep on planting I’ll keep on believing With every heartbeat I’ll keep on receiving Cause in this life it’s the love that we weave And maybe one day I’ll find my money tree
