"A Writer Of The Heart"(Part Two)
"Now The Money Talks"
© 2002 Brian Eggertsen, All Rights Reserved

Verse 1
Used to sit with friends at the slizzery
Played songs on his guitar 'round the corner,
He would pull the strings and sing from his heart
Used to write emotional songs just for her...

Chorus
But now the money talks
Fame's taking him away,
A drug he can't give up
Need's to spend it each day.
It's changed the way he smile
It's changed the way he walks,
Even his name has changed
Cause now the money talks.

Verse 2
He used to be James Casey Underwood
And he used to write and sing country tunes,
Now he's name's JC an RnB pop act
Changed everything even 'came a cartoon...

Chorus
For now the money talks
Fame's taking him away,
A drug he can't give up
Need's to spend it each day.
It's changed the way he smile
It's changed the way he walks,
Even his name has changed
Cause now the money talks.

Bridge
Now his old girlfriends cries
James whatever happend to you?
Back when we went to school
You were everyone's dream come true.

Chorus
'Cause now the money talks
Fame's taking him away,
A drug he can't give up
Need's to spend it each day.
It's changed the way he smile
It's changed the way he walks,
Even his name has changed
Cause now the money talks,
Yes now the money talks,
Oh, now the money.........Talks!

I really want to hear this song

My favorite stanza was in part one with the cig burning itself out and whatnot

I'm gonna bump the other one so this stays together, Hope people dont get scared away by the two parter and take time to read this

Hey, How do you write lyrics like that. I have always wanted to write lyrics but never thought that anything i write could be good enough. I like it how you dont always focus on the peppy things in life.. instead you tackle reality. I like it very much and are you going to get it produced with your other lyrics?
