about

'More Love Than Money' is about making major life decisions based on happiness and intuition rather than fear," says Leeroy. "There are plenty of voices that can talk you out of a dream, but if you follow the ones that guide your heart, you realize that anything is possible - even if it means giving something up to start fresh, or at the bottom of something different. It’s about new beginnings and running off of the love of the people that support you.”

lyrics

Lately I been thinking about it
Wondering how it all went down
Looking for a reason
Looking for a way to get out this town

Momma says it’s always raining
Daddy’s always working on a song
Even my mother in law’s, got something to say
About how I think wrong

Maybe I’m expired, I’m so tired of always letting you down

If I can’t make you happy
I might as well do something for me
Did I waste a life on the road
Singing someone else’s songs for free

The business isn’t my business
My baby says I’m always blue
It ain’t been nothing but cold
at home, I ain’t got nothing to do

Maybe I’m expired, I’m so tired of always letting you down

It’s always one step forward, two steps back
But we got more love than money, that’s enough to keep us on track

Pack it up and go back west
It’s not like it ain’t ever been done
but back home it’s all money
And how do you get it, when you ain’t got none

Kids and a women back home
Their keeping me satisfied
But this towns sinking down
Maybe it’s time to get back to her side

Maybe I’m expired, I’m so tired of always letting you down
Maybe we’re just fine, all in good time, I’ll stop letting you down

Maybe I’m just tired, Maybe I’m just wired and I’m coming down
