Its true what they say
You gotta run free
To learn the very secrets of life
And life ain't a joke
Because when you're broke
You can't pay your debts with a smile

I've seen a whole lot of ramblin at backstreet motels
Where all the honky tonk cats
Go chasin for rats
I'm through with my job and the factory smell
Ii have the right to expect
A little respect
I ain't got a dime to be saved in a bank
that's why I gotta be frank

Lovin you
Is lovin you just for the money
Ooh loving you
Is the kind of livin
I want to do
Play tennis together on top off a hill
Were happy forever as long as you will
Love just for the money

How deep is your love and your credit account
I gotta know all the facts
To get in the act
Invite all my friends to a church outta town
I have to send them some bucks
To rent them a tux
You know they gotta looka nice
When they stand in the aisle
And sing along
With a great great big smile

Lovin you
Is lovin you just for the money
Ooh lovin you
Is the kind of livin I want to do
When I face the altar and give you my ring
The reverends daughter and choir will sing
Love just for the money

Lovin you
Is loving you just for the money
Ooh loving you
Is the kind of livin I want to do
Well go for a honeymoon cruise to La France
Our lives will be sunny if you take a chance
Love just for the money
