[Verse 1]
The best things in life are free
But you can keep 'em for the birds and bees
[Chorus]
Now, give me money (That's what I want)
That's what I want (That's what I want)
That's what I want, yeah (That's what I want)
That's what I want

Your lovin' gives me a thrill
But your lovin' don't pay my bills
