[Intro]
The way that you love me
The way that you love me
The way that you love me
It's just the way that you love me
Way that you love me
It's just the way that you love me
The way that you love me
It's just the way that you love me

[Verse 1]
It ain't the clothes that you wear
It ain't the things that you buy
It ain't your house on the hill
It ain't the plane that you fly
It ain't your black limousine
It ain't your ninety-foot yacht
It ain't the things that you'll get
It ain't the things that you got

[Pre-Chorus 1]
It ain't the money or the diamond rings
Honey, I ain't impressed with your material things

[Chorus]
It's the way that you love me
It's just the way that you love me, baby
The way that you love me
It's just the way that you love me, baby

[Verse 2]
It ain't your friends at the top
It ain't their fortune and fame
It ain't your heavy connections
It ain't the Hollywood game

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Ain't famous people or the parties they throw
Honey, I ain't impressed with all the people you know

[Chorus]
It's just the way that you love me
In the heat of the night
It's just the way that you love me, baby
It's just the way that you love me
When you love me right
It's just the way that you love me, baby
It's just the way that you love me
And the things that you do
It's just the way hat you love me, baby
It's just the way that you love me
Make me crazy for you
It's just the way that you love me, baby

[Breakdown]
Break it down, huh
That's right
Keep it
Right there
Ow!
Right there
Guitar

[Pre-Chorus 3]
It ain't the money or the diamond rings
Honey, I ain't impressed with those material things

[Verse 3]
It ain't the trips to Brazil
It ain't the weekends in Rome
Baby, it ain't the French Riviera
You know I'd rather stay home

[Pre-Chorus 4]
Ain't the Bahamas
It ain't Monaco
Honey, I ain't impressed with all the places we go

[Chorus]
It's just the way that you love me
The way that you love me, baby
The way that you love me
It's just the way that you love me, baby
The way that you love me
It ain't the money
It's just the way that you love me
Or the diamond rings
The way that you love me
Ain't you're buying me
It's just the way that you love me
The material things
The way that you love me
It ain't your Maserati
It's just the way that you love me
Your house on the hill
The way that you love me
It ain't the parties
It's just the way that you love me
Or the trips to Brazil

[Outro]
Watch me dancin'
Watch me dancin'
Watch me dancin'
I'm watching you, girl
Go
Watch me dancin'
Keep a-rocking the world
Go, go
Watch me dancin'
Go Paula
Watch me dancin'
Watch me dancin'
I'm watching you, girl
Watch me dancin'
