Shoebox Money

Well I started off early just cuttin' grass Then I was throwin' suds on my neighbors Cadillac Dinnertime came and I was haulin' scrap Bout dead tired by the time I got back Had a couple fresh 20s burnin' holes in my pockets So I threw em in the closet in an old shoebox It didn't have much in it But it did me better than the shoes in em I'd pinch them pennies all summer long Then one day they'd all be gone I'd save up a bunch of twenties, tens, and fives Then I'd blow it all at one time Nah I didn't have to need it, I got it if I wanted I was spendin' every bit of that shoebox money Well a few years later, as the story goes I heard a somethin' playin' on the radio It made me wanna go and buy a microphone I sat down and wrote my first country song I didn't really need to think too much about it Just went to the closet and pulled the shoebox down It didn't have much in it But it did me better than the shoes in em I'd pinch them pennies all summer long Then one day they'd all be gone I'd save up a bunch of twenties, tens, and fives Then I'd blow it all at one time Nah I didn't have to need it, I got it if I wanted I was spendin' every bit of that shoebox money Nah I didn't have to need it, I got it if I wanted All day friday, saturday, sunday Livin' like I'm big boss, Rick Ross hustlin' Spendin' every bit of that shoebox money It didn't have much in it But it did me better than the shoes in em I'd pinch them pennies all summer long Then one day they'd all be gone I'd save up a bunch of twenties, tens, and fives Then I'd blow it all at one time Nah I didn't have to need it, I got it if I wanted All day friday, saturday, sunday Livin' like I'm big boss, Rick Ross hustlin' Spendin' every bit of that shoebox money
