Yeah, uhh They say money can't buy you love They say money can't buy you love They never seem to listen I'm all ears Just copped your girl a brand new Rolex But you can never find the time to spend at home Thinkin' THAT'S gon' keep her happy YOUR time is all she wanted all along [Chorus] It's the simple things in life we forget You hear her talkin' but don't hear what she said Why do you make something so easy so complicated Searching for what's right in front of your face But you can't see it [Verse 2] So you think that you know what's important Steady chasin' your fame and your fortune But you don't know You're chasing a dime losin' a treasure Those dollars don't make sense to me at all Ooh, it goes DA DA DA DA You give her spending money DA DA DA DA But all she wanna spend is time alone (tonight) Keep givin' her The finer things but But she don't really need that If you don't stop you're You're gonna end up alone (alone) IN the world without love (duh duh da duh da) Why would you do it [Chorus x2] It's the simple things in life we forget You hear her talkin' but don't hear what she said Why do you make something so easy so complicated Searching for what's right in front of your face But you can't see it It's the simple things in life we forget You hear her talkin' but don't hear what she said Why do you make something so easy so complicated Searching for what's right in front of your face But you can't see it (listen) [Verse 3] Stop tryna buy her love 'cuz you won't ever have enough There's always someone with more than you You need to pay her attention Give her what she needs Do the simple thing Before you lose your girl to me Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeeah Yeeeah yeah Play on playa Yeah Your girl comin' wit' me shorty, haha I'm tellin' you man 'cuz u know [Chorus] It's the simple things in life we forget You hear her talkin' but don't hear what she said Why do you make something so easy so complicated Searching for what's right in front of your face But you can't see it [Bridge] You better look out I hear you talkin', i hear you talkin' (ha) But what are you saying Oh hoo oh hooo Don't be a fool You got a good thang Man are you blind Stupid or crazy? You got a good thang (uh) You got a good thang If that's your lady You better hold on And give her what she wants Before she move on Man I'M tellIN you cars, clothes, and fancy things don't mean a damn thAng If you AIN'T CAKIN AND BAKIN' BABE [Chorus] It's the simple things in life we forget You hear her talkin' but don't hear what she said Why do you make something so easy so complicated Searching for whats right in front of your face But you can't see it [Fade] Don't let this be the thing you'll always regret, no RIGHT THERE IN FRONT OF YOUR FACE
