Letra de It Don't Buy You Love

[Verse 1]
Met a man sitting in a bar
Bought him a beer, he said "you seen that car
Parked out back?", he said "yeah, that's my Cadillac"
Said he'd worked hard all his life
Raised two kids, still loved his wife
And Maryanne and I thought what a lucky man
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I said "if I work hard like you, do you think I got a shot?"
He said "if you do, make sure you don't end up with what I got"
[Chorus]
I got friends I never see
Got two kids who never talk to me
Got a wife sleeping in a separate bed
And a birthday coming up, I know they'll all forget
And as for money, I got more than enough
But let me tell you son, it don't buy you love
[Verse 2]
The things in life a father shouldn't miss
The day his kids take their first steps
Well I did, and I regret it
Graduations, anniversaries
Hanging tinsel on that Christmas tree
They did alone, 'cause I was never home
[Pre-Chorus 2]
He said "if you work hard like me, yeah I think you got a shot"
He said "if you do, make sure you don't end up with what I got"
[Chorus]
I got friends I never see
I got two kids who never talk to me
Got a wife sleeping in a separate bed
And a birthday coming up, I know they'll all forget
Said, as for money, I got more than enough
But let me tell you son, it don't buy you love
[Pre-Chorus 3]
Well I worked real hard to get where I am
There's times I can't help thinking what a lucky man
[Chorus 2]
I got friends I often see
Got two kids love hanging out with me
And my wife sleeping there by my side
And a birthday coming up, yeah I love my life
And as for money, well we don't have much
Like that man said, it don't buy you love
[Outro]
Yeah like that man said, it don't buy you love
