Easy Money
nível fácil
G 
He tried to look like he had a little bit of money  
     C 
A drifter with a southern drawl  
              G 
Well I could tell right away by the way he was runnin'  
          D 
That the boy was just a beggin' to crawl.  
G 
At least a junkie knows what he needs  
           C 
You get a man all strung out on his own greed  
                  G 
He'll give up everything he's got  
                D                 G 
For just a one shot at havin' it all.  
 
  
G 
He took every last cent of his savings  
C 
On a trip to the local track  
G 
He had a tip from a friend, bet it all down to win  
D 
On a horse named heart attack.  
G 
Well now he ain't no fool boys, he didn't bet it all  
C 
So everything was cool when that horse took a fall  
G                                       D   
But then he turned around and blew the rest  
                      G 
Trying to win it all back  
 
  
                 C 
He wanted easy money  
                    G 
It's sad but it's true  
                     D  
Everybody wants the most they can possibly get  
          G 
For the least they can possibly do  
                      C 
They want that easy money  
             G 
I don't understand.  
                          D 
God they scheme and they plan  
                           C                G 
But they can't get their hands on no easy money.  
 
  
 
Now she'd been watching him from her table  
Not too soft but not too tough  
Well she figured by the money he'd been throwing around  
That he was damn sure good-looking enough  
So she worked her way over She shot him a wink  
He took his last five bucks He bought her a drink  
By the time they hit the Motel 6  
They figured they was in love (love love love...)  
 
  
She loved that easy money  
It's sad but it's true  
Everybody wants the most they can possible get  
For the least they can possibly do  
They want that easy money  
I don't understand.  
Lord God they scheme and they plan  
But they can't get their hands on that easy money.  
 
  
 
Tell it like it is, all right  
 
  
It must have been about two weeks later  
He got a call from a business friend  
Who'd found a sure-fire steal of an investment deal  
And honey guess what? He's gonna let both of us in  
So they took all their savings out of the bank  
And on the way home they stopped to gas up the tank  
She stepped in for some cigs  
And she never saw the fucker again  
 
  
He got that easy money  
It's sad but it's true  
Everybody wants the most they can possible get  
For the least they can possibly do  
He thinks it's easy money  
I don't understand.  
You scheme and you plan  
You ain't got your hands on no easy money.  
You scheme and you plan  
You ain't got your hands on no easy money.
