This song has a definite 80's flavor to it. It's kind of Bon Jovi-ish, with a touch of Night Ranger-ism, and a sprinkle of Loverboyness. Hope you like!

Lyrics
Anything For Money
Scott Lowber
I was alone, out on the run, wasn’t looking to meet anyone,
Let alone fall in love, but that’s when I met you
I fell for your smile, I fell for your eyes, I knew right away I was hypnotized
By the warmth of your touch, and the feel of brand new
(Pre-Chorus)
You took advantage of my good intentions
They tried to warn me but I wouldn’t listen
If nothing else, I guess I learned my lesson
It’s not the man, It’s just the possession
…cause you’ll do
(CHORUS)
Anything For Money, Anything For Money,
You’ll do Anything For Money but you wouldn’t wait a minute for love
I kept thinking that she was the one
The only girl I could ever want but she stepped on my soul
Don’t let that happen to you!
Cause that lust in her eyes no it wasn’t for me
She longed for something that was crispy and green
Ain’t nothin’ gonna stop her, Ain’t nothin’ she won’t do…
(Pre-Chorus)
She’ll take advantage of the situation
And overcome you with infatuation
If nothing else you’ll get an education
She runs a romance like an occupation
(CHORUS)
Anything For Money, Anything For Money,
She’ll do Anything For Money but she wouldn’t wait a minute for love
Anything For Money, Anything For Money,
She’ll do Anything For Money but she wouldn’t wait a minute for love
-BRIDGE-
Aw, they tried to warn me, but I wouldn’t listen
You know if nothing else, I guess I learned my lesson
That girl didn’t want me, I was just her possession
SOLOs
(CHORUS) - repeat
