Making Music for Money

I woke up this morning I was tired as I could be I guess I was counting my money When I should have been counting sheep My agent, he just called me And then told me what I should be He said that I should make my music for money Instead of making my music for me And I said I know that it may sound funny But money don't mean nothin' to me I won't make my music for money I'm gonna make my music for me Now people only like the love songs Rock and rollin' not too long He said, kid you got to be commerical If you wanna turn the people on Now turning on the people What a beautiful place to be But if I spend my time makin' memorable rhyme Who's gonna turn on me? And I said I know that it may sound funny But money don't mean nothin' to me I won't make my music for money I'm gonna make my music for me Now, I went up the country And I'll tell you about the scene I found a place with much charm and much grace Was untouched by the music machine The people where havin' a good time Everybody singing along And nobody cared if nobody gave One more penny for singin' a song And I said I know that it may sound funny But money don't mean nothin' to me I won't make my music for money I'm gonna make my music for me I said I know that it may sound funny, yeah Money don't mean nothin' to me I won't make my music for money I'm gonna make my music for, make my music for Make my music for me
