If you wanna mess around, just stay away from my door
I've got a leak in my bucket and a great big hole in my floor
But if you wanna stay around and love me
You know it's all right with me

I've got no money, can't afford no big black car
My bank account won't see me very far
But if you wanna stay around and love me
You know it's all right with me

I'm sick and tired of bein' on my own
But you know, I'll take nobody
Who's gonna leave me tired and alone

So you see, I can only offer a man that's poor
With frost and that and trouble at my door
But if you wanna stay around and love me
You know it's all right with me
