If Love Was Money Songtext
von Dan Penn

I hand you my love
But you don′t seem to want to take it
Guess you think that I won't ever make it
At all
I feel kind of small

And I can feel
This thing I got for you is real
I′ve tried to show you, to know you
But still you won't love me
You're way above me

Guess I was born on the wrong side

If love was money
I could afford you, honey
If love was money
If love was money
Honey, you′d be walkin′ by my side


It could have been nice, yeah
Had we been born on the same poor street
Might have had a chance to meet
You face to face
Look like I'm out of my place

Ain′t it a shame
I never really had a chance with you
Only had one dance with you
And then you walked away
Now, all I got to say

"I must have been born on the wrong side"

If love was money
I could afford you, honey
If love was money
If love was money
Honey, you'd be walkin′ by my side, yeah, yeah

Da-da, da, da
Tan, tan
Da-da, da, da

If love was money
I could afford you, honey
If love was money
If love was money
Baby, you'd be walkin′ right here by my side


Hey!

If love was money
Oh, baby, honey
If love was money
I could afford you, honey
If love was money
I could afford you, honey
I hand you my love
I hand you my love, honey
I hand you my love
