Never All The Time Lyrics

you were a small town girl in the city
making plans for something new
met a boy who thought you were pretty
but he didn't know what to do
and all the talking don't mean nothing when he's walking out on you

'cause words mean nothing if they ain't true
and now I got me some talking that's just for you
for every single time that words couldn't make you happy
and if I had somebody I'd put 'em on the line
for every word or dollar bill that I could call mine
always and forever and never all the time

he was a lost little boy in the city
tried to own what you can't buy
and he stayed up late smoking whole packs of cigarettes
'cause he couldn't sleep alone at night
and all that money ain't worth nothing when it's running out on you

'cause time ain't money and money ain't time I wish I had me a nickel or had me a dime
for every single time that money couldn't make you happy
and if I had somebody I'd put 'em on the line
for every word or dollar bill that I could call mine
always and forever and never all the time

so, save your time and stop your running
lend your words to me
sell your heartache and trade the money
for a someone who could make you happy all the time

'cause you don't need a dollar when talk is cheap
and you can never ever change what you'll always be
someone who could never be able to make you happy
and if I had somebody I'd put 'em on the line
for every word or dollar bill that I could call mine
always and forever and never all the time
always and forever and never all the time
always and forever and never all the time
