If I Had No Loot Songtext
von Tony! Toni! Toné!

Talking ′bout them times when I was by myself
I would always be looking for somebody else
But as time went on I had a talk with my mind
Friends like you and you I gotta leave behind

And I'm so, you call me your friend but you only want my gifts
And I′ll never see you if I had no loot
I'll never see them
I'm just glad I know the truth
And I′m paying my own bills
And I′ll never ever depend on you

Friends and enemies around me every day
I can't believe half the things they say
Taking me for granted giving no credit at all
I′ll just keep bouncing like a bouncing ball

Everybody seems to disappear on me
Can't trust no one as far as I can see
If I could be that fly that′s on the wall
Listening to my friends talk about it all


You call me your friend
But you only want my gifts
And I'll never see you if I had no loot
I′ll never see them
I'm just glad I know the truth
And I'm paying my own bills
And I′ll never ever depend on you

Sons of Soul, y′all
I don't mean to step on nobody′s foot, but ah

When I need somebody there's nobody to call
When they need me
My phone rings off the wall
But these are my friends
And that so what they say
Constantly taking from me every day, you say

You call me your friend
But you only want my gifts
And I′ll never see you if I had no loot
I'll never see them
I′m just glad I know the truth
And I'm paying my own bills
And I'll never ever depend on you


Sons of Soul, y′all
I don′t mean to step on nobody's foot, but ah
Na-na-na eh, na-na-na eh
Na-na-na eh, na-na-na eh
Na-na-na eh, na-na-na eh
Na-na-na eh, na-na-na eh

You call me your friend
But you only want my gifts
And I′ll never see you if I had no loot
I'll never see them
I′m just glad I know the truth
And I'm paying my own bills
And I′ll never ever depend on you

You call me your friend
But you only want my gifts
And I'll never see you if I had no loot
I'm just glad I know the truth
And I′m paying my own bills
And I′ll never ever depend on you

You call me your friend
But you only want my gifts
And I'll never see you if I had no loot
I′m just glad I know the truth
And I'm paying my own bills
And I′ll never ever depend on you
