I wish I had money to burn, I wish I had money to burn, I’d buy you your drinks And I wouldn’t want nothing in return.
I wish I had time on my side, I wish I had time on my side, I’d slow down a bit, Stretch out my legs and unwind.
I wish I believed in God, I wish I believed in God, I’d tell all my friends The good news about the Lord up above And His love.
Leaves fall on the graveyard, Wither to dust, Mix with the soil, Sink in the earth, And for the bodies down below Are the walls of a house.
Now I got money to burn, Got a little extra cash to burn, I bought lots of stuff, But it don’t give me much in return.
Got some time, you see, Got a little space to breath, But I’m kinda antsy Cuz everyone’s busy but me.
Now I believe in God, He came down and showed me His love, He told me the answer And how I was wrong, I’ll share it with you here, But it’s something you already know: This place ain’t your home.
Leaves fall on the graveyard, Wither to dust, Mix with the soil, Sink in the earth, And for the bodies down below Are the walls of a house.
