Lyrics
"I May Not Be Rich"
By
Robert L Hall
(Chorus)
I may not be rich with silver or gold,
know that I'm rich with the power to love.
(verse 1)
I may not be able to give you the things that he does,
He can take you out, buy you fine things.
give you diamonds and pearls, give you silver and gold.
I cain't do that babeh cause I'm a poor man's son.
(verse 2)
I may not be rich with silver or gold,
I may not be rich with diamonds or pearls,
I may not be rich with rubies and gems,
But girl I know for sure, I've got the power to love.
(Chorus)
I may not be rich hmmm hmmm! With silver or gold,
I may not be rich nall nall with diamonds or pearls,
I may not be rich oo with silver or gold,
But girl I know that I'm rich with the power to love.
(verse 3)
Well I cain't take you out to dinners always,
And buy you all those nice furs,
The things that most girls feel are so valuable,
But I can hold your hand andmake you feel like a woman,
I'll prepare your dinners,
And draw you a warm bubble bath.
(chorus)
I may not be rich with all those fancy thing that he can give you girl.
I may not be rich with diamonds or pearls,
I may not be rich with silver or gold,
But girl I know for sure, I've got the power to love.
(verse 4)
I may not be rich I may not be rich,
With silver, silver or gold.
I cain't give you a great big diamond ring,
But I know that i!
I may not be rich with silver or gold,
But girl I know for sure, I've got the power to love.
(verse 5)
I may not be rich,
I may not be able to give you all of those fancy things.
I may not be able to give you a great big Mercedes Benz.
I may not be able to give you no big fancy home, Just to leave you alone. Sweetheart I know, I've got the power to love.
(vamp)
I may not be rich,
I will give you all of my love, Thats all I have to offer Is my heart, my soul, my everything. It may not amount to much,
compared to the things that he'd give,
but I know that I'm rich with the power to love, I may not be rich,
I may not be rich,
Hey hey yeah, I'm rich,
I'm rich with the power to love,
I will give you all of my heart, all of my soul, all of my love,
Girl I know that I'm rich with the power to love.
(The End)
