I Will Buy You A New Life (Re-Recorded)

Here is the money that I owe you

So you can pay the bills

I will give you more when I get paid again

I hate those people who love to tell you

Money is the root of all that kills

They have never been poor

They have never had the joy of a welfare Christmas

I know we will never look back

You say you wake up crying

Yes and you don't know why

You get up and you go lay down inside my baby's room

I guess i'm doing ok

I moved in with the strangest guy

Can you believe he actually thinks that I am really alive

I will buy you a garden where your flowers can bloom

I will buy you a new car, perfect shiny and new

I will buy you that big house way up in the west hills

I will buy you a new life

Yes I will

I know all about that other guy

The handsome man with athletic thighs

I know about all the times before

With that obsessive little rich boy

They might think you're happy

Yeah maybe for a minute or two

They can't make you laugh

No they can't make you feel the way that I do

I know we can never look back

Will you please let me stay the night

No one will ever know
