You had a hand full of spades
And a heart full of wanna
And everything you said came true
Now all your friends they don’t know you
New ones think that they do
None of this will carry you through
How many people will be hanging around
When they come and take the money away?
Will anybody still be hanging around
When they come and take the money away?
I’ll be standing right next to you
With everything left to do
Yeah we’ll tell them
Come and take the money away
Everything that you want, girl
Is always open to you
No one’s gonna push you down
You do whatever you want to
You say whatever you think
But your heart, it never makes a sound
How many people will be hanging around
When they come and take the money away?
Will anybody still be hanging around
When they come and take the money away?
I’ll be standing right next to you
With everything left to do
I know you’re worried
But let them take the money away
You’re only trying to get over
But what you’re leaving behind
Is everything you said and you did
So when the boat runs aground here
And all the bones are all picked clean
We can say we finally lived
How many people will be hanging around
When they come and take the money away?
All of us will still be hanging around
When they come and take the money away
We’ll be standing right next to you
Think of everything we can do
I wish they’d hurry
Come and take the money away
‘Cause there ain’t none anyway
