Nobody Wants To Be Poor lyrics

See the rich in their houses Gold trim around every door Bite our lips in envy 'Cause nobody wants to be poor Yeah, nobody wants to be poor Heard the poet and his lady Are making love just to keep warm Singing: All you need is love But baby, nobody wants to be poor No, no, nobody wants to be poor Don’t measure your wealth in money Or get caught up in the great decay If you’re folding or stacking I hear it all turns to dust some day I count my riches in a different way I can swim in the ocean Hear my babies laugh from the shore Whether you’re counting houses or love Baby, nobody wants to be poor No, nobody wants to be poor
