Loving Pauper
I'm not in a position to maintain you,
the way that you're accustomed to,
Can't take you out to fancy places,
Like other fellows that I know can do,
I'm only able to romance you,
& make you tingle with delight,
Financially, I'm a pauper,
but when it comes to lovin I'm alright.
Alright alright
Don't show me what you're friends are wearing,
I really don't want to see,
Don't tell me what your friends are buying, girl
'Cause money doesn't grow on trees.
I got so many patches on my clothes, girl
A hole in the bottom of shoe
Financially, I'm a pauper,
but when it comes to lovin I'm alright.
Alright alright
You do really think I can buy you girl,
or drive you in a GT car,
If you're hungry, girl, I can't feed you,
for my money, girl, you won't get far,
tell me about the things that excite you,
that makes you tingle with delight,
Tell me where to hold & touch you,
So you got to tell me, I'm alright.
Alright alright
the way that you're accustomed to,
Can't take you out to fancy places,

but when it comes to lovin I'm alright.

Tell me where to hold & touch you,
So you got to tell me, I'm alright.
Alright alright
