[Intro]
Can't buy me love, love
Can't buy me love

[Verse 1]
I'll buy you a diamond ring, my friend
If it makes you feel alright
I'll get you anything, my friend
If it makes you feel alright

[Refrain]
For I don't care too much for money
Money can't buy me love

[Verse 2]
I'll give you all I got to give
If you say you love me, too
I may not have a lot to give
But what I got I'll give to you

[Refrain]
For I don't care too much for money
Money can't buy me love

[Bridge]
Can't buy me love
Ev'rybody tells me so
Can't buy me love
No-no-no, no

[Verse 3]
Say you don't need no diamond ring
And I'll be satisfied
Tell me that you want those kind of things
That money just can't buy

[Refrain]
For I don't care too much for money
Money can't buy me love, ow, yeah

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Can't buy me love
Ev'rybody tells me so
Can't buy me love
No-no-no, no

[Verse 4]
Say you don't need no diamond ring
And I'll be satisfied
Tell me that you want those kind of things
That money just can't buy

[Refrain]
For I don't care too much for money
Money can't buy me love

[Outro]
Can't buy me love, love
Can't buy me love, love
