G Em Am
There was a little girl I had planned to marry
D G
This was my love, I didn't want to share it
Em Am
I thought that love would make my life bright and sunny
D G
She said she couldn't love me cause I didn't have no money
G Em Am
So everyday I have to cry some
D G
Everyday I have to cry some
Em Am
Dry the water from my eye some
D G
Everyday I have to cry
I had me a girl, I guess I really loved her
Every night I was thinkin' of her
But you can't mix love with money
Cause if you do it's gonna hurt somebody
Chorus
Lord I know that I'm just a poor man
But is it wrong to love cause I'm not a rich man
Every time you mix love with money
Every time it hurts somebody
Chorus
