Sniff 'n' the Tears Lyrics
"Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is"

Romance rises to the manner born all those old familiar sights
but in truth they all look so forlorn these same old city lights
and I think again about the times we spent when we couldn't get enough
faded dreams and cherished hopes and I ask who do you love

So put your money where your mouth is or you'll never get it back
put your money where your mouth is - put your wheels on the track

Tina told me Ben got lost on the trail to Katmandu
but who's around to count the cost of what other people do
you share your dreams and you take your shot
and then the winner picks a prize
and you leave behind the times forgot and you say well damn their eyes

So put your money where your mouth is or you'll never get it back
put your money where your mouth is - put your wheels on the track

Promises are made to break and hearts and people to
and ex-idealists deny that they know more than me or you
and I think again about the times we spent when we couldn't get enough
faded dreams and cherished hopes and I ask who do you love

So put your money where your mouth is or you'll never get it back
put your money where your mouth is - put your wheels on the track
