I wrote this little ditty at 230 in the morning
Momma still up reading her book & papa was snoring
They got a call from the bank today n said you better look for another place to stay
Unless you got the money

Whoever said money can't buy happiness
Awh thats just one big lie cuz when you in a mess
Knee deep in debt, head full of regret
I bet they'd take a nice big slice of that American spice
I'm talkin' bout that cash, you better make it last
Cuz when you're broke it ain't no joke
Rich folks they ain't too kind to that

Cuz it ain't too funny when you ain't got the money
Standin in the checkout line looking like a dummy
Darkest days are here n you ain't feelin too sunny
Go right home to bed n then you wrap up like a mummy
Like what they want from me
When I get a little bread they just takin' all of my honey
Tell me is that love or is that karma out to shove me
Is that what I deserve in the land of second comings
Stunning how real the picture gets when the music's running

Whoever said money can't buy happiness
Awh thats just one big lie cuz when you in a mess
Knee deep in debt, head full of regret
I bet they'd take a nice big slice of that American spice
I'm talkin' bout that cash, you better make it last
Cuz when you're broke it ain't no joke
Rich folks they ain't too kind to that
But if you're poor man you can rhyme on that

I think it's time
We discuss our relationship
Everything is fine
Just checkin for leaks on this ship
Your the bottle to my wine
I'm tryin hard not to let it slip
I like my love divine

Like my loving true
Like my loving right

I love you baby girl but you
ain't the only one I've loved this way
Said I know you love me girl but you
ain't the only one who's fell for me

Now you can run like they told you to
Or you can stay and listen to me
Said you can run like your friends told you to
But you should think what you consider a friend

Cuz my love is true
And our love is right

I love you baby girl but you
ain't the only one I've loved this way
Said I know you love me girl but you
ain't the only one who's fell for me
