If love was a thing that money could buy

The rich would got love

While the poor got a lot of hate

Money inna mi pocket mi a go look a gal

Serious

Have to touch the road can mi have to get a gal

Serious

Money in my pocket and it full up

If mi blow a kiss the pretty girls dem a go pull up

Shorty say she love me

But I just don't believe

God forbid I end up broke

I know that she is gonna leave

These are the things that I perceive

Just by her actions and her speech

I just knows she stays around

Cuz of the things that she receive

I'm the fool to sit in love

Even the fool know i'm naive

That's the problem with us men

Always falling for the the freaks

All about the physical intrigue with their physique

And they know to blow my mind

They got the science and technique

I got money in my pocket

But I just can't get no love

I got money in my pocket

But I just can't get no love

Yes I pray

To find a woman of my own

(To find a woman of my own)

Yes I pray

Cuz I don't want to be alone

(I don't want to be alone)

Well me have mi money inna mi pocket

And a woman of my own yea

I'm a single father

Me and my kids them live at home yea

Tired fi go out a road

And me alone a go back home yea

Now mi want a empress inna mi zone

But mi want a woman love me for me

And mek me feel and know what real love is

Want a empress inna a mi life

No pretty face was gold dig

Want a beautiful woman weh a go love all of my kids

No love mi true mi bank account big cause

I got money in my pocket

But I just can't get no love

(You'll never find, can never find)

I got money in my pocket

But I just can't get no love

(True love, real love)

Yes I pray

To find a woman of my own

(To find a woman of my own)

Yes I pray

Cuz I don't want to be alone

(Cuz I don't want to be alone)

Oh Gosh now

Money can buy you lots of thing

Make you live life as a king

But money cannot buy you a queen

with a heart that's clean and pure and genuine

Some woman say them love you

Dem intent is to get everything

Want fi take it all

And leave you empty and dry without a thing

Love! is all I got (move ya)

And love! is all I giving you

And love is all I bring

I keep on rocking and swing

I keep on rocking and

I got money in my pocket

But I just can't get no love

(all I want is love)

I got money in my pocket

But I just can't get no love

(I just and I search but I can't find)

Yes I pray

To find a woman of my own

(Every day every night I pray))

Yes I pray

Cuz I don't want to be alone

(Cuz I don't want to be alone)

Oh gosh now
