The Song That Makes Me Rich

One day I'll write a song that makes me rich

There'll be a truck and a beer and a town and a girl in it

It'll be sung in a major key

It'll climb the charts at record speed

I'm gonna have me a big ol' hit

In that song the girl won't walk away

The guy'll hit one knee, knowin' what she'll say

They'll see it through and they'll work it out

Fill every frame inside their house

Grow old, but their love'll never fade

It'll be three chords and anything but true

Yeah, the song that makes me rich won't be about you

Every cover band's gonna know the words

To the happiest damn song you ever heard

It'll keep the lights in my mansion on

It'll pay the guys that mow my lawn

And remind me of what we never were

In that song the girl won't walk away

The guy'll hit one knee, knowin' what she'll say

They'll see it through and they'll work it out

Fill every frame inside their house

Grow old, but their love'll never fade

It'll be three chords and anything but true

Yeah, the song that makes me rich won't be about you

'Cause it'll be simple

It'll be easy

The whole world'll sing along

But you'll see right through me

In that song the girl won't walk away

The guy'll hit one knee, knowin' what she'll say

They'll see it through and they'll work it out

Fill every frame inside their house

Grow old, but their love'll never fade

It'll be three chords and anything but true

Yeah, the song that makes me rich won't be about you

Yeah, the song that makes me rich won't be about you
