[Intro]
Money can't buy love
Money can't buy love
Money can't buy love
Money can't buy love
Money can't buy love
Money can't buy love
[Verse 1]
By the way you look at me, you not feelin' me much
But I can tell how we kiss, I can tell how we touch
Was the one that you called when you wanted to get off
Now you don't wanna ride, tellin' me you'll get lost
Well, baby, do what you want. She said, "I do what I please"
She started to walk for the door. I get down on my knees
And then her heart got so cold. I could feel my words freeze
She said she only loved the money and never loved me
[Verse 2]
I really didn't wanna believe it. I was feelin' depressed
I had to go to a church. I had to go and confess
I told the preacher my sins. I said I'd show him the rest
I told him, "Call the police. I'll put four in her chest"
He told me, "Do it." I will, 'cause he'll be prayin' for me
He said the cops on they way, and they ain't playin' with me
They start to pull they pistols out, and they was aimin' at me
They told me, "Come quietly," and bullets sprayin' at me
[Verse 3]
I had to run up out the church. I'm in love. I was hurt
Like a pig in the mud, I'm in love with the dirt
So now it's death do us part, 'cause she was breakin' my heart
We was doomed in the end, 'cause we fucked up from the start
I'll get you high like the sky. You'll be so fly like a dove
I guess it's true what they say, that money can't buy you love
I'll get you high like the sky. You'll be so fly like a dove
I guess it's true what they say, that money can't buy you love

Detroiters middle-aged and older will remember the massive contribution their city made during World War II toward keeping the world free. Perhaps more keenly they can recall the quiet they felt when Sir Winston Churchill knighted the city of Detroit the "Arsenal of Democracy." Now a quarter of a century later, Detroit has emerged from another war. This time, the fifth largest city in the country has earned a regrettable new title. The cradle of the bloodiest and costliest civil disturbance in the history of the American nation
Of course, many accounts of personal suffering and tragedy will come out of Detroit's ordeal by fire and bullets. We'll be hearing those for weeks, months, even years to come. This is evidence of sniper activity, exchange of-
