The seeds u was a sewin
Ain't your babies now
The grub and the dirt
On your sweaty brow and
The garden gets a growing
When the rain trickles down
Let's pretend that money
Means nothin
Sure i could pierce my fingers
As I learn how to sew
Make amends, patch a tear
Hem a shirt I'd soon outgrow
Throw the socks into the fire
Darn the hole from head to toe
Let's pretend that money
Means nothin
Take me out to eat
At the fishing hole
From earth to worm to perch
An exchange of humble souls
Sit around a fire
With our greedy bellies full
Let's pretend that money
Means nothin
When the country is callin
When the feeling is right
When they all come a knockin
Better run for your life
When yer oh so tired
Just go go go
I got a game for you
When you come back home
With a humid house and hearth
And a fresh baked loaf
I could pass on the green
Pay the debt of the dough
Let's pretend that money
Means nothin
We could live out our days
In the Canadian Isles
An electrical fire
Could clear our cabinets of files
And if they wanna pay the flight
They can bring us back to trial
We can dream oh that money
Means nothin
So oh honey sugar sweet
I'm talking to myself
I might spend a day in silence
With a breath to make the rounds
Can I open up a window
Where the wind's the only sound
Can I pretend that money
Means nothin
