You got lace and pretty flowers 

to give your baby 

to get her under your powers 

You got silk and sweet perfumes 

You know she might come 

She might come up to your room 



But if you've got soul 

you know she's gonna bowl you over 

and when my baby rolls me over 

I feel like I want to fly 

I feel like I want to fly 



You got satin and lots of money 

Diamond rings and such things 

to trap your honey 

You got big black cars 

you want to let her ride 

Give it all to her 

She might come over to your side 



But if you've got love 

and a deep devotion 

it gets just as deep as the ocean 

with just you two inside 

Just you two inside 



You got a house, a mansion in the country 

Give it all to her 

she could still be empty 

You could be the richest man in the world 

but there's nothing I know of 

that'll buy you the heart of a girl 



But if you've got love
