lyrics

Million Out of Me

Got a notion for a new direction
Gonna make a better man out of me.
Getting tired of the car I’m driving
I’m not good looking and I can’t find the keys.

There’s a man you can give him a dollar bill
He makes two and I get back four
Another good idea, yet another scheme and I’m free,
To make a million out of me

Got a notion for a new direction
Well I tell you that the kid has the plan,
Got a deal on a heath food gadget gonna sell it from the back of my van,
You know all the famous people are doing it
And mother says she gonna buy one,
Another good idea, yet another scheme and I’m free,
To make a million out of me
To make a million out of me
To make a million out of me
To make a million out of me

Tears in her eyes
Simple is all she wanted
She didn't wed prosperity
That was me…

Got a notion for a new direction
Gotta tell you that this one is the best
Working hard and the man keep taking and he’s leaving me to live on what’s left
I can hide out in my dad’s old trailer,
We can park it where they’ll never find me
Another good idea, yet another scheme and I’m free,
To make a million out of me,
To make a million out of me,
To make a million out of me,
To make a million out of me,
A million out of me
To make a million out of me
