Lyrics:

Greasy money
Ain't no tellin' where it's been
Grease ya money
It come back to you again
Ain't no missin' things you give away
Give it up, put a smile on someone's day
Greasy money
It comes back to you again

In times of wonder
Give all my dimes away
In times of wonder
My guitar and me we'll play
A heart of care, is a heart that doesn't mind
What goes around, comes back to you in time
Up a yonder, greasy money comes your way

Easy money
No you know there ain't no such a thing
Easy money
It'll ruin everything
If you put it out it's bound to get back in
A lazy man is no man full of sin
Easy money
No there ain't no such a thing

Greasy money
You best keep your pocket full
Greasy money
Don't save a single bill
When I'm lonesome, i spend it till it ends
No money's good, till it's greased by your friends
Greasy money
It comes back to you again
Vocal stylings reminded me a bit of Lyle Lovett.
The highest rated song among the last five in this "Southern" set is 5.5. The south has lots of fine music, this set just doesn't put the region in its best light.
...oh wow, those horns. those are worth a step up from ho-hum! :)

I've never heard of this guy, but the music completely made me think of New Orleans. (I've been thinking about New Orleans alot lately...maybe it's time to go back.) And sure enough, it seems he's from there.
At first I thought this was a Little Feat/Lowell George tune I had never heard (as others have mentioned below). Anders is great. Lots of fun if you get a chance to see him live!
Nice. I think I know why all the songs for the last 2 hours have been mellow: It\'s 10pm over there, but 4pm here is Sydney, which explains the proliference of Knopfler tracks.

I'm embarrassed to say the same thing.
LOVE the lead-in to this song from Rickie Lee\'s \"Easy Money\".
