It Pays Big Money
Mark Chesnutt Song Lyrics
(Shawn Camp Randy Hardison Wynn Varble) My oldest brother Tommy was a lineman rest his soul His job was hanging hot wires on them power company poles I said with all of that high voltage don't it scare you half to death? He said it makes me kinda nervous but I just can't help myself 'cause It pays big money and boy I'm into that It pays big money if you're willin' to take a chance I'll tell you sonny you ought to see my bank account It paid big money but he sure can't spend it now My dear departed cousin used to put in forty hours Changing all them light bulbs on them television towers Every morning bright and early he'd climb up in the sky And I didn't understand it so one day I asked him why, he said It pays big money and boy I'm into that It pays big money if you're willin' to take a chance I'll tell you sonny you ought to see my bank account It paid big money but he sure can't spend it now My late Uncle Charlie was demolition man And he traveled all over the country blasting holes in this great land And he carried a case of dynamite everywhere he went And he'd smoke them big long cigar's 'til it got the best of him, but It pays big money and boy I'm into that It pays big money if you're willin' to take a chance I'll tell you sonny you ought to see my bank account It paid big money but he sure can't spend it now Now the moral of this story Is don't go getting yourself killed And be kind to your rich relatives And they might just leave you in their will And that pays big money having foolish kin It pays big money, I guess I owe it all to them I'll tell you sonny you ought to see my bank account It pays big money think I'll go spend some of it now |
