Money rains from the sky above But keep the change 'cause I've got enough A little time and some tenderness You'll never buy my love No other thing that's as precious to No other There's no other Than a heart that's real and a heart that's true Somethin' that you've got to know, this girl Whoo! Take my hand Or take over Take my hand, you Or take over Take my hand, you Or take over Take my hand Or take over These presents don't really come for free Your paychecks don't mean that much to me Just take my hand and hold me tight You'll never buy my love You buy me this and you buy me that To win over Win me over You got me wrong and that's a fact Somethin' that you've got to know, this Will you realize when I'm gone That I dance to a different song? Will you realize when I'm gone That I dance to a different song? It's a shame but I've got to go Whoo! Take my hand Or take over Take my hand, you Or take over Take my hand, you Or take over Take my hand Or take over
