1
Here's what my mama said
2
Do it for the love, not for the money
3
Not for the guns and not for the honeys
4
Do it "˜cause it makes you feel alive
5
Like the way we rockin' on Saturday night
6
Do it for the love of it, do it for the smell of it
7
Do it for the joy and the taste and the hell of it
8
Do it "˜cause you love it and it makes no sense
9
Not yens or euros or dollars or cents
10
When I was a little, little boy I knew I'd grow up
11
To be somebody that my mama said would always show up
12
To work, to school and all that's cool
13
But, following rules was never my strong suit, you know
14
I bought a guitar, a microphone too
15
Set out to do what I was born to do
16
And mama said something as I was walking out the door
17
[Chorus:]
18
Do it for the love, not for the money
19
Not for the guns and not for the honeys
20
Do it "˜cause it makes you feel alive
21
Like the way we rockin' on Saturday night
22
Do it for the love of it, do it for the smell of it
23
Do it for the joy and the taste and the hell of it
24
Do it "˜cause you love it and it makes no sense
25
Not yens or euros or dollars or cents
26
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na
27
Do it for the love of it
28
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na
29
Just for the love of it
30
Life is never easy and you better know it
31
Sometimes it's like the date you're waiting for that doesn't show up
32
You got to pay the rent, or else you owe it
33
And like a credit card, you know you better not blow it
34
And if you got beef with someone, let go it
35
And if you got love for someone, you better show it
36
Mama said this as I was walking out the door
37
[Chorus]
38
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na
39
Do it for the love of it
40
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na
41
Just for the love of it
42
[Chorus]
43
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na
44
In the summertime
45
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na
46
That's right, that's right, so party people say
47
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na
48
Put your hands in the air like this, y'all
49
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na
50
Do it for the love of it
51
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na
52
Do it for the love of it
53
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na
54
Just for the love of it
55
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na
56
Do it for the love of it
57
Just for the love of it
