"Scared Money" lyrics

We're headed to the Paddock
It's almost automatic
Leaving a trail of shit from the sale
Scootin' walking heal boots
Down exchange avenue
The hell was nearly raising itself
It's 1982
The market's through the roof
We're living plenty high on the swine
I'm finally sitting pretty
In Oklahoma City
Ain't nothing gonna stop me tonight

Scared money don't make nothing
Nothing in life will come free
Grab what you can carry while the gettin's still good
Or nothing is all you're ever gonna be

Born in a boom town
Been up and been down
Ain't afraid to do it again
I tried to go to school
Thought I was too cool
And that's where that story ends
Put in my application
On the Anadarko Basin
There's fortune right beneath your feet
I walked out of class
And straight to the patch
'Cause no one ever paid me to read

Scared money don't make nothing
Nothing in life will come free
Grab what you can carry while the gettin's still good
Or nothing is all you're ever gonna be

Scared money don't make nothing
Nothing in life will come free
Grab what you can carry while the gettin's still good
Or nothing is all you're ever gonna be

Scared money don't make nothing
Nothing in life will come free
Grab what you can carry while the gettin's still good
Or nothing is all you're ever gonna be
