Story Behind The Song
From the time I wrote this song to now, it always applies and always has validity. It is especially strong with the current climate that America is in.
Song Description
I think the song is self explanatory. I've always read about it and it just became apparent to me that I should write about what is constantly going on in the world.

Lyrics
Words & Music
By Brook Dillon
Do you think I?m strong, do you think I?m weak.
I got a disposition and I know it?s kind of meek.
But, I?m hungry for money?
I learned when I was young, when I had a heart.
Money can play such an important part.
It can buy you anything, bring you everything.
It turns you into strength and power is what I need.
I?m hungry for money, hungry for money, I?m hungry for money
My life is very good, but never good enough.
Someone has to pay for my pretty, pretty yacht.
And the dreams of some poor man are falling by my side.
My finger?s on the button as I close my greedy eyes.
I?m hungry for money, hungry for money, I?m hungry for money
I?m hungry for money, hungry for money, I?m hungry for money.
To know that I can to know I?m in control. The power will never ever take its toll.
It?s a cold cruel world and I?m on top of it all.
It?s the only way and I know I can take it all?yeah! All right!
SOLO
The profit is the cause the amount is not enough.
Although I?m in the black I?ll need to tighten up.
Money is money, more is that much more. Whatever I?ve got I?ll double it for sure.
It?s the power to give it?s the power to control.
I can take this little nation and lead them to a war.
I?m hungry for money, hungry for money, I?m hungry for money.
Hungry for money, hungry for money, I?m hungry for money.
Hungry for money, hungry for money, I?m hungry for money?
