[Verse 1]
Some people live for the fortune
Some people live just for the fame
Some people live for the power, yeah
Some people live just to play the game

[Pre-Chorus]
Some people just don't know what they have
But boy, I'm so glad I got you
Some people say they search all their life
But boy, it's so nice I found you

[Chorus]
Some people want it all
I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you, baby
If I ain't got you, baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
It means nothing, nothing
If I ain't got you

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, you you you
Ooh, you you you
Ooh, you you you, you you you, you you you

[Verse 2]
Some people search for a fountain
Promises forever young
Some people need roses
And that's the only way to prove you love them, baby

[Pre-Chorus]
Some people just don't know what they have
But boy, I'm so glad I got you
Some people say they search all their life
But boy, it's so nice I found you

[Chorus]
Some people want it all
I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you, baby
If I ain't got you, baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
It means nothing nothing
If I ain't got you

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, you you you
Ooh, you you you
Ooh, you you you, you you you, you you you
Ooh, you you you
Ooh, you you you
Ooh, you you you, you you you, you you you

[Spoken Interlude]
Uh, yeah
That's how I feel
I wanna say more, but...
The last record I did with Kanye
Talked your ear off so, haha
All I wanna say is...

[Sung Interlude]
Baby, baby
Nothing in this whole wide world
Don't mean a thing
I ain't got you with me, baby

[Chorus]
Some people want it all
I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you, baby
If I ain't got you, baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
It means nothing nothing
If I ain't got you

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, you you you
Ooh, you you you
Ooh, you you you, you you you, you you yo
