Money Tree - Merle Haggard, The Strangers

Silver and gold made you say goodbye

One day it may make you want to cry

When you’re alone with a heart that’s blue

Who will you take your heartaches too

Love can’t grow on a money tree

Not the kind you had with me

Some day when you’re older a wiser girl you’ll be

Then you’ll know that love can’t grow on a money tree

I don’t blame you for all my pain

A young girl like you needs time to dream

You’re happy now but how long will it last

One day you’ll be just a girl with the past
