One For The Money Lyrics - Kris Kristofferson

I've seen you standing there stunned in the spotlight 

I've seen the sweat streak the pain on your face 

'Cause you're caught like a clown in a circle of strangers 

Who do you screw to get out of this place 

[Chorus:] 

It's one for the money 

And too far to go 

Three fingers of whiskey 

Just for the soul 

That lady you're pleasin' 

Is hungry and cold 

Don't look in her eyes 

You'll see what you sold 

Too many bodies in too many bars 

Too many feelings are fallin' behind 

'Cause you're easy to fool when you're lost in the stars 

Shoot out that spotlight before you go blind
