Everybody wants some type of success in life Like every woman wants to one day be a wife Your success is measured but to a degree Cuz all the money in the world don't add up to you and me I'd rather be pickin' up bottles and cans If you can't be my man I'd rather be homeless in the streets With no food to eat I'd rather be facing twenty to life If I can't be your wife Now I know that it seems like I'm crazy for you That's what love can do Look at what you started there's no way this can end Because I've fallin in love but how deep did I fall in If anything should ever stand in our way I wouldn't wait 'till tomorrow but I'd throw it away today I'd rather be pickin' up bottles and cans If you can't be my man I'd rather be homeless in the streets With no food to eat I'd rather be facing twenty to life If I can't be your wife Now I know that it seems like I'm crazy for you That's what love can do I'd rather be pickin' up bottles and cans I'd rather be homeless in the streets With no food to eat I'd rather be facing twenty to life Now I know that it seems like I'm crazy for you That's what love can do It just ain't money Without There is no home Without you It's no crime, baby Without Who is everyone Without you It's no career Without It's not sincere Without you These diamonds don't shine Without Whoa That's what love can do I'd rather be pickin' up bottles and cans If you can't be my man I'd rather be homeless in the streets With no food to eat I'd rather be facing twenty to life Now I know that it seems like I'm crazy for you That's what love can do I'd rather be pickin' up bottles and cans I'd rather be homeless
