i will buy you a garden.

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 & you dont know why
you get up & you go lay down
inside my baby's room

i guess i'm doing okay
i moved in with the strangest guy
can you believe he actually thinks
that i'm really alive?

i will buy you a garden
where your flowers can bloom
i will buy you a new car
perfect, shiny & new
i will buy you that big house
way up in the west hills
i will buy you a new life
yes i will
