You've heard that old story ever since time began that money is root of all evil Well let me tell you mine it's much older than time for the root of all evil is a man They'll tell you that they love you and will until they die But you'll find them out with someone else before a tear come alive and it's dry So girls take my advice think it over once or twice for the root of all evil is a man Sure there's honky tonk girls but before you condemn And look at her with storm in your eyes Hive her just a friendly smile hear her troubles for a while For the cause of her trouble was a man They'll tell you that they love you...
