[Verse 1: Eddie Kendricks]
I ain't got time to think about money
Or what it can buy
And I ain't got time to sit down and wonder
At what makes a birdie fly

[Pre-Chorus: Eddie Kendricks]
I don't have time to think about
What makes a flower grow
And I never given a thought
To where rivers flow

[Chorus: Eddie Kendricks + (The Temptations)]
(Too busy thinking about my baby)
Oh, yeah
Ain't got time for nothing else

[Verse 2: Eddie Kendricks]
I ain't got time to discuss the weather
Or how long it's gonna last
And I ain't got time to do no studying
Once I get out of class

[Pre-Chorus: Eddie Kendricks]
And I'm just a fella
With a one, a one track mind
And when it comes to thinking about anything but my baby
I just don't have time
[Chorus: Eddie Kendricks + (The Temptations)]
(Too busy thinking about my baby)
Oh, yeah
Ain't got time for nothing else
And I know it's all, it's alright

[Instrumental break]

[Verse 3: Eddie Kendricks]
I ain't got time to read a newspaper
Or look at TV
'Cause I'm not concerned with what the future holds
In store for me

[Pre-Chorus: Eddie Kendricks]
I'm just a fella
With a one, a one track mind
And when it comes to thinking about anything but my baby
I just don't have time

[Chorus: Eddie Kendricks + (The Temptations)]
(Too busy thinking about my baby)
Oh yeah
Ain't got time for nothing else
You know I'm too, too busy
(Too busy thinking about my baby)
Oh baby
(Ain't got time for nothing else)
