Leo Sayer - When The Money Runs Out Lyrics

(Leo Sayer/Ray Parker Jr.)

When the money runs out
What will we do
Turn around and start anew
Takes all your lovin' babe
To see me through
Without your love
What would I do
'Cos I'd put you and me babe
Up against the world
There ain't nobody else
Like you and me girl
Who wants the money and the luxury
When love and happiness
Is all you need
Can't you see that all you're living for
Is dollars and cents
Don't make no sense
And all you think about in the final end
Is spend spend, spend
So when the money runs out
We'll fly away
And quit the city life and find a hideaway
Live in the country babe
Off the fat of the land
Nothing to worry about
No money in the bank
Who needs the money - what does it mean
Another roll of paper babe - in a sea of green
To live life for money - you've got to be mad
When I watch you burn it up you know I feel so sad

[Solo]

So when the money runs out
What will you do
Turn to me babe and I'll pull you through
We'll give back the diamonds
And we'll sell the car
We'll live the simple life
And make a brand new start
'Cos I put you and me babe
Up against the world
There ain't nobody else
Like you and me girl
Who wants the money and the luxury
When love and happiness
Is all you need
Yeah when the money runs out
I still got you
Yeah when the money runs out
When the money runs out
