When I woke up this mornin'
I was tired as I could be
I think I was countin' my money
When I should a' been countin' sheep

My agent he just called me
And told me what I should be
If I would make my music for money
Instead of makin' music for me

Chorus:
I said, "i know that this may sound funny
But money don't mean nothin' to me
I won't make my music for money
No, I'm gonna make my music for me"

He said, "the people only buy the love songs
Rock n' roll and not too long"
He said, "son you got to be commercial
If you want to turn the people on"

And I said, "turnin' on the people
Now that's a beautiful place to be
But if I spend my time makin' them up a rhyme
Well, who's gonna turn on me? "

Repeat chorus:

Well now I went up to country
And I'll tell you all about the scene
I found a place with much charm and much grace
That wasn't touched by the music machine

Whoa, the people were havin' a good time
Makin' music all day long
And nobody cared if they ever got paid
One penny for playin' a song

Repeat chorus:

Repeat chorus:
Whoa, I know...


Mirror lyrics:

Whoa, I know...
Repeat chorus:

Repeat chorus:

One penny for playin' a song
And nobody cared if they ever got paid
Makin' music all day long
Whoa, the people were havin' a good time

That wasn't touched by the music machine
I found a place with much charm and much grace
And I'll tell you all about the scene
Well now I went up to country

Repeat chorus:

Well, who's gonna turn on me? "
But if I spend my time makin' them up a rhyme
Now that's a beautiful place to be
And I said, "turnin' on the people

If you want to turn the people on"
He said, "son you got to be commercial
Rock n' roll and not too long"
He said, "the people only buy the love songs

No, I'm gonna make my music for me"
I won't make my music for money
But money don't mean nothin' to me
I said, "i know that this may sound funny
Chorus:

Instead of makin' music for me
If I would make my music for money
And told me what I should be
My agent he just called me

When I should a' been countin' sheep
I think I was countin' my money
I was tired as I could be
When I woke up this mornin'
