I'll tell you what love is oh yeah
And this is no lie
Love is a 5 letter word yes it is
It's simply M-O-N-E-Y
Love without money oh yeah
It's like a shirt without a tie
That's what it is
Love is a 5 letter word
Don't ya know
It's simply M-O-N-E-Y
You can't live on kisses woah no
Nor a warm embrace oh no
In case your charm misses
You gotta have cash to take its place
Oh sweet talk comes easy
But sometimes it'll get ya by
Love is a 5 letter word
Everybody knows it's simply M-O-N-E-Y
There's one more thing now
Let the poets write of love
It sounds good I can't deny
Let them write about the stars up above
Let them write about the moon up in the sky
But I know what's happenin' oh yeah
Without it you haven't got a thing
But if you've got some money honey
Let me tell you what you can do with it baby
You live just like a king
Woah oh
You can't live on kisses woah no
Nor a warm embrace oh yeah
In case your charm misses
You gotta have cash to take its place
Oh sweet talk comes easy
Yes it will
Sometimes it'll get ya by
Love is a 5 letter word
Don't you know it's simply M-O-N-E-Y
Woahhh M-O-N-E-Y
I'm talkin' about money honey
I need love but I need money
Woah yeah I need money
Love is a many splendid thing
But money is more baby
