Money on the Steet

1. No need to remind you now that times have been tough,
What used to be plenty is no longer enough.
When you locked your door and stepped out early today,
You were looking at nothing might be coming your way.
But out there on the asphalt walking those pavement cracks,
Today you’ll see something bound to bring your luck back.

Chorus:

‘Cause if you turn your eyes toward the ground,
What could be better than money found?
For nothing makes your day complete
Like finding money on the street.
And nothing makes your life so sweet
As pickin’ up money at your feet –
Finding your money on the street.

2. Now you may find a little or you may find a lot,
Guaranteed to be more than what your pocket’s got.
What belonged to another on a previous day
Is yours for the taking, won’t you take it away?
But so many faces out there so much like yours,
Looks like their dying, living life as a curse.

But if you turn your eyes toward the ground,
What could be better than money found?
For nothing makes your day complete
Like finding money on the street.
And nothing makes your life so sweet
As pickin’ up money at your feet –
Finding your money on the street.

3. What will it take for you to turn back the tide,
To get behind it, pull it right on your side?
If you put your heart into it as you did before,
The world will show you where it’s hiding a door.
‘Cause your fortunes may change at the drop of a dime,
You’ll be watchin’ life turn easy for the very first time.

And if you turn your eyes toward the ground,
What could be better than money found?
For nothing makes your day complete
Like finding money on the street.
And nothing makes your life so sweet
As pickin’ up money at your feet –
Finding your money on the street.
