"Easy Money" lyrics - WAYLON JENNINGS

WAYLON JENNINGS
"Easy Money"

I didn't rob no bank or break no teller machine
I didn't mug nobody or steal from a widow's child
But I'll take your money and do a little dance and sing
But to tell the truth, I'm only gonna keep it a while

[Chorus:]
Easy money, easy come and easy go
Easy money, easy come, where it goes, I don't know

Never could hold on when anything wasn't mine
Trouble's all it ever got me into
And knowin' that I'd just be wastin' time
Thinkin' I could ever hold onto you

[Chorus]

I got a two-wide trailer on the banks of the Black Water Draw
Back at the house it trickles down to a stream
I ain't breakin' my back and I sure ain't breakin' the law
Livin' on mud bud's a mainstay country cuisine

[Chorus 2x]
