Blue October - The Money Tree Lyrics
I'm standing on an open worldI've got to try so hard for myselfNow including the ones that I loveI call my familyIt's not hard when your focus is a beautiful girlA brand new baby. She's a baby girlAnd yeah, she's a cutie like her mommyUh, yes, yeah, she looks like her mommyWe both know who we areAnd I'm not changing a thing I've never changed beforeIf loving me is work, I'm not a job to takeI think we're heading for the crazy making heartbreakI'm wondering why I'm sitting here alone againWhy you always crush meWhy it's never easyEasy, easy, easy. It's not easyThis is you. This is meYou won't be a part of what we need to beNot for me. For the future of us threeFor our daughter, college, familySudden health emergenciesYou think it's easy picking money off my money tree?With two houses, both carsI paid off your credit card debtDid you already forget?You threat and threat and threatJust *****ing leave. Find a man who will put up with youWe both know who we areAnd I'm not changing a thing I've never changed beforeIf loving me is work, I'm not a job to takeI think we're heading for the crazy making heartbreakI can't help but think of how great you are with the baby daughterHalf the time a single motherWhen I go away, it is so you can always stay homeAnd let your baby grow. Bring her up the right wayYou never take it that wayWe both know who we areAnd I'm not changingI need support, not a slap in the faceYou have to trust me or I'm sure it'll blow up in your faceI'm in love with such an angel and she doesn't even knowWe've taught each other a thousand ways we don't even knowWe both know who we areAnd I'm not changing a thing I've never changed beforeIf loving me is work, I'm not a job to takeI think we're heading for the crazy making heartbreakI can't help but think of how good you are with the daughterHalf the time a single motherWhen I go away, it is so you can always stay homeAnd let your baby grow. Bring her up the right wayI must be the one who has his daughter's future at heartAs you're the one who never wants a family apartWe both know that together we can only believeThat if we could be, there should be no reason to leave
