Today’s song is Making Money, a lovely, simple song by Ben Rector with a wise message:

Making money, it isn’t easy
And it sure won’t make you happy
So I think it’s funny
We’re so concerned with making money

And money won’t keep folks from grieving
And it won’t stop love from leaving
So here’s my two cents
What’s the use in making money

This is one of the many songs introduced to me by my friend and colleague Maeve who celebrates her birthday today. Happy birthday, Maeve!
