Ain T Nothin Goin On But The Rent lyrics

Bill collector`s at my door
what can you do for me?
No romance without finance
no romance without finance.
Boy
nothing in life is free

That`s why I`m asking you: what can you do for me?
I`ve got responsibilities

So I`m looking for a man who`s got some money in his hand.

`Cause nothin` from nothin` leaves nothin`

You`ve got to have something if you wanna be with me.
`Cause life is too serious
love`s too mysterious

A fly girl like me needs security.

`Cause ain`t nothin` goin` on but the rent

You`ve got to have a J - O - B if you wanna be with me.
Ain`t nothin` goin` on but the rent

You`ve got to have a J - O - B if you wanna be with me.
No romance without finance
I said: no romance without finance!

Boy
your silky words are sweet

But we`re only wasting time if your pockets are empty.
I`ve got lots of love to give

But I will have to avoid you if you`re unemployed.

`Cause nothin` from nothin` leaves nothin`
. . .
`Cause ain`t nothin` goin` on but the rent
. . .
No romance without finance
I said: no romance without finance!

Oh
you look good to me
your silky words are sweet

But your pockets sure look empty!
Ain`t nothin` goin` on but the rent -
I`m looking for a man to put some money in my hand.
