You think you gotta keep me iced (You don't) You think I'm gonna spend your cash (I won't) Even if you were broke My love don't cost a thing Think I wanna drive your Benz (I don't) If I wanna floss I got my own Even if you were broke My love don't cost a thing When you rolled up in the Escalade Saw that truck you gave to the valet Knew that it was game when you looked at me Pulling up your sleeve so I could see the Rolley bling Saw you later in the corner booth Raising up a toast so I would notice you But your heart's a mess Think you outta know Doesn't matter if you're balling out of control All that matter's is That you treat me right Give me all the things I need That money can't buy yeah You think you gotta keep me iced (You don't) You think I'm gonna spend your cash (I won't) Even if you were broke My love don't cost a thing Think I wanna drive your Benz (I don't) If I wanna floss I got my own Even if you were broke My love don't cost a thing When I took a chance Thought you'd understand Baby credit cards aren't romance So you're tryna buy what's already yours What I need from is not available in stores Seen a side of you that I really feel Doing way too much, never keep it real If it doesn't change, gotta hit the road Now I'm leaving, where's my keys? I've got to go All that matter's is That you treat me right Give me all the things I need That money can't buy yeah You think you gotta keep me iced (You don't) You think I'm gonna spend your cash (I won't) Even if you were broke My love don't cost a thing Think I wanna drive your Benz (I don't) If I wanna floss I got my own Even if you were broke My love don't cost a thing A thing, a thing, a thing Yeah, yeah, yeah You think the money that you make Can substitute the time you take Take the keys here to my heart Then you can win my heart, and get what's in my heart I think you need to take some time To show me that your love is true There's more than dollar signs in you Then you can win my heart, and get what's in my heart You think you gotta keep me iced (You don't) You think I'm gonna spend your cash (I won't) Even if you were broke My love don't cost a thing Think I wanna drive your Benz (I don't) If I wanna floss I got my own Even if you were broke My love don't cost a thing You think you gotta keep me iced (You don't) You think I'm gonna spend your cash (I won't) Even if you were broke My love don't cost a thing Think I wanna drive your Benz (I don't) If I wanna floss I got my own Even if you were broke My love don't cost a thing You think you gotta keep me iced (You don't) You think I'm gonna spend your cash (I won't) Even if you were broke My love don't cost a thing Think I wanna drive your Benz (I don't) If I wanna floss I got my own Even if you were broke My love don't cost a thing
