If you got lace and pretty flowers
to give your baby, get her under your powers
If you got silks and sweet perfumes
You know she might come,
she might come up to your room
But if you've got love
and a deep devotion
It gets just as deep as the ocean
With just you two inside
With just you two inside
If you've got satins, lots of money
Diamond rings and such things to trap your honey
You got big black cars, you want to let her ride
Give it all to her
She might come over to your side
But if she's got soul
She knows she's gonna bowl you over
And when my baby rolls me over
I feel like I wanna fly
Yes, I feel like I wanna fly
If you've got a house, a mansion in the country
You give it all to her, but she could still be empty
You could be the richest man in the world,
there's nothing I know of
that'll buy you the heart of a girl
But if you've got love
and a deep devotion
it gets just as deep as the ocean
With just you two inside
With just you two inside
With just you two inside
With just you two inside
