| Some folks think | |
| I'm greedy. | |
| And I just take from you. | |
| And if I say it's true now what good would that do. | |
| And if I wanted to be funny. | |
| I could say that all the money. | |
| That you spent on me was just from fraud. | |
| And if I wanted to be bitter. | |
| I could say that little by little. | |
| All you did for me was no good. | |
| I didn't lose your money. | |
| I didn't lose your money. | |
| I didn't lose your money. | |
| Oh no your money just lost you. | |
| You brought me up this way when just a little bit | |
| Of love could have changed my ways. | |
| Some folks help the needy. | |
| Me I just help myself. | |
| And if I shared with you now it would steadily decrease my wealth. | |
| And if I saw you on the street. | |
| With worn out shoes upon your feet. | |
| I wouldn't spare you a price of a cup of tea. | |
| I know you brought me from the gutter. | |
| Helped me with my bread and butter. | |
| But I have a lousy memory. | |
| I didn't lose your money. | |
| I didn't lose your money. | |
| I didn't lose your money. | |
| Oh no your money just lost you. | |
| You brought me up this way when just a little bit | |
| Of love could have changed my ways. | |
| And just a little bit of love. | |
| Love love love. | |
| Could've changed my ways. |
