Ain't Nothin' Goin' on but the Rent Lyrics

Bill collectors at my door
What can you do for me?
HeyNo romance without finance
No romance without financeBoy, nothin in life is free
Thats why Im askin you what can you do for me
Ive got responsibilities
So Im lookin for a man who's got some money in his handsCause nothin from nothin leaves nothin
You got to have somethin if you wanna be with me
Oh, life is too serious, loves too mysterious
A fly girl like me needs securityCause aint nothin goin on but the rent
You got to have a J O B if you wanna be with me
Aint nothin goin on but the rent
You got to have a J O B if you wanna be with meNo romance without finance
I said, "No romance without finance"Boy, your silky ways are sweet
But youre only wastin time if your pockets are empty
Ive got lots of love to give
But I will have to avoid you if youre unemployedCause nothin from nothin leaves nothin
You got to have somethin if you wanna be with me

Cause life is too serious, loves too mysterious
A fly girl like me needs securityCause aint nothin goin on but the rent
You got to have a J O B if you wanna be with me
Aint nothin goin on but the rent
You got to have a J O B if you wanna be with meNo romance without finance
I said, "No romance without finance"
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 emptyOoh, nothin from nothin leaves nothin
You got to have somethin if you wanna be with me
Whoa, life is too serious, loves too mysterious
A fly girl like me needs security
I said, "Life is too serious, loves too mysterious
Fly girl like me needs security"Cause aint nothin goin on but the rent
You got to have a J O B if you wanna be with me
Aint nothin goin on but the rent
You got to have a J O B if you wanna be with meNo romance without finance
No romance without finance
No romance without finance
I said, "No romance without finance"What can you do for me?Oh, you look good to me
Your silky words are sweet
But your pockets sure look emptyAint nothin goin on but the rentIm lookin for a man to put some money in my hands
