Percy Sledge - Success Lyrics

Percy Sledge Lyrics

"Success"

Success don't come easy
Success it's hard to find
Some men say it's gold and riches
But I don't need no gold mine

Cause I know what success is
I know what happiness
Happiness is too
Success is being loved
By a sweet little woman like you
I know it is kissing you
I know it is

Well I've seen lots of people
With their pockets full of change
But no love to keep them happy
Foolish hearts racked with pain

Oh I'll never never be a pauper
Cause you know I have
You see love so true
To me success is being loved
Honey by you oh yes it is
I said success is being loved
By you oh yes it is
I said success is being loved
