Ain`t Nothin` Goin` On But The Rent Lyrics

Bill collector's at my door

what can you do for me?

No romance without finance

no romance without finance.

Boy

nothing in life is free



That's why I'm asking you: what can you do for me?

I've got responsibilities



So I'm looking for a man who's got some money in his hand.



'Cause nothin' from nothin' leaves nothin'



You've got to have something if you wanna be with me.

'Cause life is too serious

love's too mysterious



A fly girl like me needs security.



'Cause ain't nothin' goin' on but the rent



You've got to have a J - O - B if you wanna be with me.

Ain't nothin' goin' on but the rent



You've got to have a J - O - B if you wanna be with me.

No romance without finance

I said: no romance without finance!



Boy

your silky words are sweet



But we're only wasting time if your pockets are empty.

I've got lots of love to give



But I will have to avoid you if you're unemployed.



'Cause nothin' from nothin' leaves nothin'

. . .

'Cause ain't nothin' goin' on but the rent

. . .

No romance without finance

I said: no romance without finance!



Oh

you look good to me

your silky words are sweet



But your pockets sure look empty!

Ain't nothin' goin' on but the rent -

I'm looking for a man to put some money in my hand.
