A Little Money & A Whole Lotta Green

[INTRO] Mmm... Ain't got everything... But I got enough. [VERSE 1] Got a little money in my pocket A little sunshine on my face Got some people that I love And a little room to make mistakes Bills still coming every month Lord knows life ain't always sweet But I got a reason to be grateful Every time I hit the street [PRE-CHORUS] Some folks chasing diamonds Some folks chasing fame Me? I'm just trying to hold on To the things that really matter anyway [CHORUS] A little money And a whole lotta green Blue sky above me Living out my dreams Good folks around me Heart feeling free A little money And a whole lotta green [VERSE 2] Music playing from the neighbor's yard Kids laughing down the block Old heads telling old stories Looking at the hands on the clock Nobody rushing nowhere No need to prove a thing Sometimes the richest feeling Ain't about what you bring [PRE-CHORUS] It's the peace you got When the day slows down And your favorite people still around [CHORUS] A little money And a whole lotta green Fresh air moving Through the leaves on the trees Good love around me That's enough for me A little money And a whole lotta green [BRIDGE] I done seen fancy cars I done seen fancy things But none of that compares To what a quiet heart can bring So if you're asking me What success really means It's waking up thankful For the life that you lead [FINAL CHORUS] A little money And a whole lotta green Good people laughing Like a scene from a dream Hands to the heavens For the simple things A little money And a whole lotta green [OUTRO] Mmm... Maybe that's the secret. Not having it all... Just appreciating what you got.
