I wanna tell you what love is
I ain't gonna tell a lie
Love is a five letter word
It's simply M-O-N-E-Y

Cause love without finance
Is like the shirt without the tie
Love is a five letter word
It's simply M-O-N-E-Y

You can't live on kisses
Or a warm embrace
In case your charm misses
You better have some cash to take it's place
Sweet talk comes easy
And you know sometimes sweet talk gets you by
But love is a five letter word
It's simply M-O-N-E-Y

You can let the poets write of love-a
It sounds real good I can't deny it
You know they're right about the stars up above
They write about the moon up in the sky
But I'll tell you what's happening
Without it you ain't got a thing
But you got some money honey
And they will treat you like a king
And that's cause

You can't live on kisses
Or a warm embrace
In case your charm misses
You better have some cash to take it's place
Sweet talk come easy
Sometime(s) it get you by
But love is a five letter word
It's simply M-O-N-E-Y

You just can't live on kisses
Or a warm embrace
Well now n case your charm misses
You better have some cash to take it's place
Sweet talk comes easy
Baby sometimes sweet talk 	it gets you by
But love is a five letter word
It's simply M-O-N-E-Y

Talk about my honey
I need love but I need money too
Can't live on kisses baby
M-O-N-E-Y
Love that's a many splendored thing boy
Ah ha kiddin' yourself money's more
I need some money
Ah lady
I need M-O-N-E-Y
