Next to nothing in our pockets We didn’t need much cash to get by Felt like more than just surviving We learned love needs little to thrive
Thrift store art in our apartment Dressed in mostly hand-me-downs But love don’t always look like diamonds And You look mighty fine in a floral crown
Cause loving was easy, living poor Making memories that money just can’t afford To some it may seem foolish but to us it’s common sense Maybe living poor makes loving rich
We couldn’t buy those big vacations But wealth can’t buy the love we make But if paradise is in your presence Then I don’t care the road that we take
Cause loving was easy, living poor Making memories that money just can’t afford To some it may seem foolish but to us it’s common sense Maybe living poor makes loving rich
You make me feel like a King You make it feel like a dream I don’t need glamorous or fancy I don’t need fame or fortune honey I just need you You just need me
Loving is easy, living poor Making memories that money just can’t afford And to some it may seem foolish but to us it’s common sense But maybe living poor makes loving rich Baby living poor makes loving rich
