Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My life it didn't quite turn out
The way I always dreamed about
My pockets never filled with gold
My story has remained untold
But I ain't giving up
On my half empty cup
No, I ain't giving up
[Verse 2]
I've seen the end of many life long dreams
I've made mistakes but never learned a lesson
Till I met a girl with sunshine eyes
She showed me how to live on the level
She said until you learn to trust yourself
You're never gonna be on the level
On the level
[Verse 3]
My sails they never filled with wind
Good luck it hasn't quite kicked in
Battalions never stormed the gate
My backup always came too late
But how much do you wanna bet
That you ain't seen nothing yet?
How much do you wanna bet
That you ain't seen nothing yet?
[Verse 4]
I've seen the end of many life long dreams
I've made mistakes but never learned a lesson
Till I met a girl with sunshine eyes
She showed me how to live on the level
She said until you learn to trust yourself
You're never gonna be on the level
On the level
[Verse 5]
(She said) Money, money, money, money can change you
(She said) Money, money, money, money can change you
(She said) Money, money, money, money can change you
(She said) Money, money, money, money can change you
You, you, you, you, you, you
[Verse 6]
My life it didn't quite turn out
The way I always dreamed about
But I ain't giving up
On my half empty cup
No, I ain't giving up
On my half empty cup
[Verse 7]
I've seen the end of many life long dreams
I've made mistakes but never learned a lesson
Till I met a girl with sunshine eyes
She showed me how to live on the level
She said until you learn to trust yourself
You're never gonna be on the level
On the level
On the level
On the level
On the level
On the level
On the level
On the level
