Spent All My Money
Money's Grip: A Rocking Tale of Splurge and Redemption
Lyrics
I went out last night baby
The speaker went out the previous night.
cnd I threw all my money down
The speaker spent all of their money recklessly.
For a handshake and a favor
They spent money for a simple gesture or favor.
I had such a good time on the town
The speaker enjoyed themselves thoroughly while in town.
I spent all my money again
Reiteration of spending all their money.
cnd I spent it all on my friends
They spent the money on their friends.
cnd if I get one more greenback
Expresses a likelihood of repeating the spending behavior if given more money.
I know I'm gonna do it again
Anticipating repeating the same behavior if they receive more money.
Them pills are so powerful baby
Reference to powerful pills that led the speaker to trouble, likely legal issues.
cnd they took me right to jail
As a consequence of the pills, the speaker was taken to jail.
But I had some satisfaction
Despite the trouble, there was a sense of satisfaction when someone bailed them out.
When I had someone to go my bail
The speaker felt relieved having someone support them in their difficult situation.
I spent all my money again
Reiteration of spending all their money.
cnd I spent it all on my friends
They used their money again on friends.
cnd if I get one more greenback
Expresses a likelihood of repeating the spending behavior if given more money.
I know I'm gonna do it again
Anticipating repeating the same behavior if they receive more money.
I lent my last dollar baby
The speaker lent their last dollar to a friend.
To a good old friend of mine
They helped a friend out of goodwill.
cnd I ain't seen that dollar baby
The speaker hasn't received the money back from the friend in a year.
In a year since today's time
Emphasizing the passage of time without the return of the borrowed money.
I spent all my money again
Reiteration of spending all their money.
cnd I spent it all on my friends
They used their money again on friends.
cnd if I get one more greenback
Expresses a likelihood of repeating the spending behavior if given more money.
I know I'm gonna do it again
Anticipating repeating the same behavior if they receive more money.
