"What Are Folk Like?"

 

Someone Else's Money (Justin Ward)

 

This one didn't start out a line dance tune. It's about drifting around, couch surfing, squatting, getting evicted.

All money is someone else's, really, or it wouldn't be money. Phat guitar licks at top and tail.

E major.


It's someone else's money, it doesn't matter what you pay
It's someone else's money, feel free to throw it all away
If there's any left tomorrow, you'll have wasted it today
It's someone else's money, that makes everything OK

It's someone else's room, it doesn't matter where you sleep
It's someone else's room, you're still getting it cheap
If you're still here tomorrow, you'll be in pretty deep
It's someone else's room, anything you find you can keep

It's someone else's house, it doesn't matter what you do
It's someone else's house, but you're just passing through
If you're still here tomorrow, the rent's still overdue
It's someone else's house, but they want those keys back off you

It's someone else's street,it doesn't matter how you act
It's someone else's street, make sure your bags are packed
If you're lying there tomorrow, the flies you will attract
It's someone else's street, and that's a matter of fact

It's someone else's life, it doesn't matter how they die
It's someone else's life, you're just a passer by
If you're still here tomorrow, it's one less day to cry
It's someone else's life, All you ever get's one try
