Mighty Sparrow & Byron Lee - No Money, No Love lyrics

Artist: Mighty Sparrow & Byron Lee

album: Only A Fool


Ivy pack up she clothes to leave
Because John was down and out
All alone he was left to grieve
She had a next man in South
She said openly
She say, "I really love you Johnny
But you ain't have no money
So what will my future be
Even though you say you love me?"
We can't love without money
No we can't make love on hungry belly
Johnny you will be the only one I'm dreaming of
You're my turtle dove, but - no money, no love!
If you hear how he plead with she
To get she to understand
"Listen, mister", she tell Johnny
"Leggo me blasted hand!
And make up your mind
We got to break up this lime"
She said, "poverty is a crime
You got no money
Still you tanglin' me all the blinkin' time"
Now what she mean is...
We can't love without money
No we can't make love on hungry belly
Johnny you will be the only one I'm dreaming of
You're my turtle dove... no money, no love!
Gentlemen let me tell you plain
She said "I don't want to make a scene
But if you only touch me again
The police will intervene
You ain't got a blasted cent
I couldn't even pay me rent
I had to give up me apartment
You give me nothing to eat
Now you want me to sleep on the pavement?"
We can't love without money
No we can't make love on hungry belly
Johnny you'll be the only one I'm dreaming of
You're my turtle dove, but - no money, no love!
