Take the Money Lyrics by Shelby Merry

Little Dreams and Pretty Things

2024

Kiss me one more time
Before you go and leave me
Rain on me until my bones are clean I get lonesome on my own
Don't make me lonesome in your arms
And I wouldn’t wanna have it any other way
Are you gonna take the money and run
Are you gonna take the money and run
Darling?
Take the money and run
Running from all of the things I've done
Your hand is scarred and scorned more than mine
Well, life can get messy when I'm in the way
I never learn nothing I just stay the same
And I wouldn’t wanna have it any other way
Are you gonna take the money and run
Are you gonna take the money and run
Darling?
Darling I could devour you
You're a sweet as a sugar cane
Dripping from my chin syrupy sweet
And when you leave in the morning
Kiss me twice before you leave
And I wouldn't wanna have it any other way
Wouldn't have it any other way
Are you gonna take the money and run
Are you gonna take the money and run
Are you gonna take the money and run
Are you gonna take the money and run
Darling?
Kiss me one more time before you go and leave me
Rain on me until my bones are clean
I get lonesome on my own
Don't make me lonesome in your arms
And I wouldn't wanna have it any other way
Couldn't have it any other way
