1
When I woke up this morning
2
I was tired as I could be
3
I think I was counting my money
4
When I should have been counting sheep
5
My agent he just called me
6
And told me what I should be
7
If I would make my music for money
8
Instead of making music for me
9
[Chorus:]
10
I said I know that this may sound funny
11
But money don't mean nothin' to me
12
I won't make my music for money, no
13
I'm gonna make my music for me
14
He said that people only buy the love songs.
15
Rock and roll is not too long
16
He said son you got to be commercial
17
If you want to turn the people on.
18
And I said turning on the people
19
Now that's a beautiful place to be
20
But if I spend my time makin' memorable rhyme
21
Well who's gonna turn on me?
22
[Chorus:]
23
Well now, I went up the country
24
And I'll tell you all about the scene
25
I found a place with much charm and much grace
26
That was untouched by the music machine
27
Well the people where havin' a good time
28
Makin' music all day long
29
And nobody cared if they ever got paid
30
One penny for playin' a song
31
[Chorus:]
