I flew out to California
I can't say it was a waste of time
I was staring in the eyes
Of the burning hills and the Hollywood lights
Out of all the conversations
Over pretty drinks and God knows
I met a man on the west coast that changed my life
He told me money burns fast and the truth it goes down hard
Lawyers lie, lovers cheat but there's nothing like a broken heart
There are many things I've done
That I've lived to regret
So make your moves count cause you ain't dead yet
Stranded back in Georgia, I was itching to get up and go
I called my momma, middle of the night
She never understood my rambling ways
But I think momma had a few of her own
Cause there was a silence before she said good bye
She told me money burns fast and the truth it goes down hard
Lawyers lie, lovers cheat but there's nothing like a broken heart
There are many things I've done
That I've lived to regret
So make your moves count cause you ain't dead yet
Well, I was standing by his grave talking like he was there
I felt the wind pick up sweet scent on the air
He was a blues man and my best friend
Went before his time
I bowed my head and prayed, asking for a sign
And I heard
Money burns fast and the truth it goes down hard
Lawyers lie, lovers cheat but there's nothing like a broken heart
There are many things you do
That I hope you live to regret
So make your moves count cause you ain't dead yet
You better make your moves count cause you ain't dead yet
