[Verse 1]
What if I told you I worked at the corner store
Sold candy and chips and my family's poor?
Tell me, would you stay with me?
What if I told you I didn't own a car
But I'd walked those miles to where you are?
Tell me, would you wait for me?

[Pre-Chorus 1]
'Cause I heard money makes the world go 'round
And if you don't have much you're missing out
But I disagree, 'cause I'm feeling wealthy

[Chorus]
I do believe that if I got you
It's all the wealth I need to survive
But I can't deny
If I won the lottery it would be nice
But just keep in mind
That money can't buy this love, ooh
Money can't buy this love, ooh, no

[Verse 2]
What if I told you I owe to the IRS
I'm still paying off loans and college debts?
Tell me, would you pack up and run? Would you?
What if I told you I slept on my homie's couch
For eight months last year, I had no house?
Tell me, would you stay if I was a bum?

[Pre-Chorus 2]
And you say you don't need those finer things
No fancy cars, no diamond rings
We could be broke but you got a heart of gold

[Chorus]
I do believe that if I got you
It's all the wealth I need to survive
But I can't deny
If I won the lottery it would be nice
But just keep in mind
Money can't buy this love, ooh
Money can't buy this love, ooh

[Bridge]
Love ain't cheap but mine is free for you
And I'm not rich but I'll spend my life for you, ooh

[Chorus]
Yeah, I do believe that if I got you
It's all the wealth I need to survive
But I can't deny
If I won the lottery it would be nice
But just keep in mind
That money can't buy this love, no
Money can't buy this love, ooh

[Outro]
They say money makes the world go 'round
They say money makes the world go 'round and 'round
Yeah, yeah, yeah
