    Told my darling that I had to go
    It's your body, I don't care no more
    Although you had me, time to get along

    Money won't change you, money won't change you...
    But time will take your own do

    Then you know, how to be treated
    Hold me, baby, tell the world
    That you're my woman, my only girl

    Money won't change you, money won't change you...
    But time will take your own do
    I know you're happy
    To know you're happy, and to know you're gone
    Money won't change you
    Money won't change you, mama
    I said, money won't change you
    But time will take you own

    I said, put a smile as good as gold
    But that smile now can't be sold
    You said, baby, that you had to go
    Back to somebody, I don't care no more
    Told your friends I was a fool
    The trouble's, woman, that you've got to go through
    Other lover won't take me home
    I have a...
    Even in the street, even in the car too
    Mashed potatoes and boogaloo
    C'mon baby and let yourself go...
    It's your body, I don't care no more
    C'mon baby, c'mon baby, everybody, everybody
    Need your hand, need your hand
    Let me tell you I, I, I...
    I'm down so long...
