Ain’t Nothin’ Goin’ On But the Rent (Extended Club Mix)

[Intro]
Hey
Ain't nothin' goin' on but the rent
Bill collectors at my door
What can you do for me?
Hey

[Instrumental Break]

[Refrain]
No romance without finance
No romance without finance

[Verse 1]
Boy, nothin' in life is free
That's why I'm askin' you what can you do for me
I've got responsibilities
So I'm lookin' for a man who's got some money in his hands

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause nothin' from nothin' leaves nothin'
You got to have somethin' if you wanna be with me
Oh, life is too serious, love's too mysterious
A fly girl like me needs security

[Chorus]
'Cause ain't nothin' goin' on but the rent
You got to have a J-O-B if you wanna be with me
Ain't nothin' goin' on but the rent
You got to have a J-O-B if you wanna be with me

[Refrain]
No romance without finance
I said no romance without finance

[Verse 2]
Boy, your silky ways are sweet
But you're only wastin' 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

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause nothin' from nothin' leaves nothin'
You got to have somethin' if you wanna be with me
'Cause life is too serious, love's too mysterious
A fly girl like me needs security

[Chorus]
'Cause ain't nothin' goin' on but the rent
You got to have a J-O-B if you wanna be with me
Ain't nothin' goin' on but the rent
You got to have a J-O-B if you wanna be with me

[Refrain]
No romance without finance
I said no romance without finance
No romance without finance
I said no romance without finance (Without finance)

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Oh, you look good to me
Your silky words are sweet
But your pockets sure look empty

[Pre-Chorus]
Mmm, nothin' from nothin' leaves nothin'
You got to have somethin' if you wanna be with me
Whoa, life is too serious, love's too mysterious
A fly girl like me needs security
I said life is too serious, love's too mysterious
Fly girl like me needs security

[Chorus]
'Cause ain't nothin' goin' on but the rent
You got to have a J-O-B if you wanna be with me
Ain't nothin' goin' on but the rent
You got to have a J-O-B if you wanna be with me

[Refrain]
No romance without finance
No romance without finance
No romance without finance
I said no romance without finance (Without finance)

[Outro]
What can you do for me?

Oh, you look good to me
Your silky words are sweet
But your pockets sure look empty

Hey
Ain't nothin' goin' on but the rent
Bills collectors at my door
What can you do for me?
Hey

Ain't nothin' goin' on but the rent
