"Nothing Compares To Love" lyrics
One time in my life I had everything
Money, cars, houses, clothes, and I had diamond rings
But what goes up must come down, I can tell it y'all
Time pass so fast and now I have nothin' at all
But nothin', nothin', nothin' is greater than love
Nothin', nothin', nothin', nothin' is greater than love
It was a family that I seen green station wagon
Windows rolled down and the muffler draggin'
Ninety-eight degrees, not a breeze passin'
Next to them cold AC blastin'
Selfish eyes singin' 'bout bein' fly
Me and that man lookin' eye to eye
Seven kids and a wife in a beat up wagon (please)
God forgive me for all that boastin' and braggin'
Now y'all tell me how important is that
Runnin' round talkin' 'bout my pockets is fat
But I do it, but it really ain't my lifestyle
Fake hugs, fake friends, fake pounds, fake smiles
I've been blessed y'all, I confess y'all
To the north and south, east and west, y'all
So little boys and girls all over the earth
Nothin' in the world is worth what you worth
One time in my life I had everything
Money, cars, houses, clothes, and I had diamond rings
But what goes up must come down, I can tell it y'all
Time pass so fast and now I have nothin' at all
But nothin', nothin', nothin' is greater than love
Nothin', nothin', nothin', nothin' is greater than love
Okay, dude got the hottest new corner block (why?)
And dude even got the new Jacob watch (what?)
And your mama don't care and your daddy straight missin'
Your clothes out of style and your wrists ain't greasy
And dude even got the girl that you like
And you're sayin' to yourself, Lord, that ain't right
Then dude go to jail, then dude get out
Then dude get rich and you're stuck without
Then your main man try to make the dude some dope
Your little sister's pregnant and she thinks it's a joke
Just keep your feet planted on the ghetto ground
But don't pay attention to them ghetto sounds
'Cause it ain't where you're from, it's where you're goin'
And I can get it on without my tags showin'
Then the Cash Money Millionaires gonna break up
For real, y'all young dudes better wake up
One time in my life I had everything
Money, cars, houses, clothes, and I had diamond rings
But what goes up must come down, I can tell it y'all
Time pass so fast and now I have nothin' at all
But nothin', nothin', nothin' is greater than love
Nothin', nothin', nothin', nothin' is greater than love
Money, cars, houses, clothes, and I had diamond rings
But what goes up must come down, I can tell it y'all
Time pass so fast and now I have nothin' at all
But nothin', nothin', nothin' is greater than love
Nothin', nothin', nothin', nothin' is greater than love
It was a family that I seen green station wagon
Windows rolled down and the muffler draggin'
Ninety-eight degrees, not a breeze passin'
Next to them cold AC blastin'
Selfish eyes singin' 'bout bein' fly
Me and that man lookin' eye to eye
Seven kids and a wife in a beat up wagon (please)
God forgive me for all that boastin' and braggin'
