Lyrics
My father always said that there's no free ride You've got to make a sacrifice So many prophets on the Lord's side Even your soul has got a price But talk is cheap It takes money to buy your freedom And the tax man's knockin' on your door Spend it while you can Money's contraband You can't take it with you when you go Spend it while you can Before it's taken from your hand There's no free ride in this carnival world There's no free ride in this carnival world Too many hawkers on this travelin' show Everybody's got somethin' to sell Bootleg Swatches, cardboard Gucci gear Watch your step at the wishing well But talk is cheap It takes money to buy your freedom And the tax man's knockin' on your door Spend it while you can Money's contraband You can't take it with you when you go Spend it while you can 'Fore it's taken from your hand There's no free ride in this carnival world There's no free ride in this carnival world What's mine is mine If it's only one thin dime My cash was always meant to flow Spend it while you can Money's contraband You can't take it with you when you go Spend it while you can Before it's taken from your hand There's no free ride in this carnival world There's no free ride in this carnival world There's no free ride in this carnival world There's no free ride There's no free ride There's no free ride
