Beth did you see the movie of Ray Charles life story? It was a good movie.we just watched it a couple night ago.
Yes, I've seen that movie. Jamie Foxx did an excellent job. He is a classically trained pianist and actually played in the movie, but he said he had to practice a lot to get Ray Charles' technique.
I had to make many corrections to these lyrics. The folks that publish them are often careless. Of all of the people that I used to know Most never adjusted to the great big world I see 'em lurking in book stores Working for the Public Radio Carrying babies around in a sack on their back Moving careful and slow It's money that matters Hear what I say It's money that matters In the USA All of these people are much brighter than I In any fair system they would flourish and thrive But they barely survive They eke out a living They barely survive When I was a young boy, maybe thirteen I took a hard look around me and asked what does it mean? So I talked to my father He didn't know I talked to my friend He didn't know I talked to my brother He didn't know I talked to everybody that I knew It's money that matters Now you know that it's true It's money that matters Whatever you do Then I talked to a man lived up on the county line I was washing his car with a friend of mine He was a little fat guy in a red jumpsuit I said "That looks kind of funny" He said "I know it does too" "But I got a great big house on the hill here And a great big blonde wife inside it And a great big pool in my backyard and another great big pool beside it Sonny it's money that matters, hear what I say It's money that matters in the USA It's money that matters Now you know that it's true It's money that matters whatever you do.
