The Lyrics

No offense, Paula but here is what you may sing if you were a gold digger and I'm telling you STRAIGHT UP!
IT'S JUST THE MONEY THAT COUNTS
(It's Just The Way That You Love Me)

It ain't the love that you give
It's just the things that you buy
It ain't the trust and affection
But what you get me and I

It ain't the love that we make
But your fine house and your yacht
It ain't the love that I get
But it's the money you got

Cos it's the money and that diamond tings
Honey, I am impressed with your material things

CHORUS
It's just the money that counts
It's just the money that counts, baby
It's just the money that counts
It's just the money that counts, baby

It ain't the vows that we made
But it's your fortune and fame
It ain't the kssies and huggin'
Hoeny, I don't play that old game

Your credits cards, stocks and all of your gold
Honey, I ain't impressed with all those lies that we told

CHORUS
It's just the money that counts
It's the money you earn
It's just the money that counts, baby
It's just the money that counts
And it's all ready to burn
It's just the money that counts, baby

It's just the money that counts
Yes, I love to be rich
It's just the money that counts, baby
It's just the money that counts
'Cause I'm a gold digging witch
It's just the money that counts, baby

Break that bank! Ow!
Yeah, gimme that gold
Oh, that diamond necklace
Oh, give it to me, now!
Cold Hard Cash

(guitar or synthesizer solo)

Cos it's the money and that diamond rings

Cos it's the money and that diamond rings
Honey, I am impressed with your material things

It ain't, that honeymoon lovin'
But it's that weekend in Rome
It ain't that trip down the aisle
Honey, I don't wanna stay home

'Cause it's the luxuries and the cash
Honey, don't give me your old love and marriage trash

It's just the money that counts
I want your money
It's just the money that counts
And those diamond rings
It's just the money that counts
Don't want your lovin', babe
It's just the money that counts
Just material things
It's just the money that counts
I want your Mazarati
It's just the money that counts
Your house on the hill
It's just the money that counts
Don't want your Wedding
It's just the money that counts
Just a trip to Brazil
