Once there was a poor boy
Livin' from hand to mouth
Didn't have much of anything
Didn't know but I found out

Money can't buy
The love that I
Used to know

Now I buy you diamonds
And pearls from the orient
Now I live in a penthouse suite
And I don't owe nobody a cent

Money can't buy
The love that I
Used to know

Money can't buy
Money can't buy

Money can't buy
The love that I
Used to know

Running in a nightmare
Waking in a cold sweat
You sell your soul to the company payroll
Just to keep from gettin' in debt

Money can't buy
The love
