Ive seen the sweat streak the pain on your face
Cause youre caught like a clown in a circle of strangers
Who do you screw to get out of this place
Chorus:
Its one for the money
And too far to go
Three fingers of whiskey
Just for the soul
That lady youre pleasin
Is hungry and cold
Dont look in her eyes
Youll see what you sold
Too many bodies in too many bars
Too many feelings are fallin behind
Cause youre easy to fool when youre lost in the stars
Shoot out that spotlight before you go blind
Chorus:
Its one for the money
And too far to go
Three fingers of whiskey
Just for the soul
That lady youre pleasin
Is hungry and cold
Dont look in her eyes
Youll see what you sold
