Some folks think I'm greedy and I just take from you
And if I say it's true now, what good would that do?

And if I wanted to be funny, I could say that all the money
That you spent on me was just from fraud
And if I wanted to be bitter, I could say that little by little
All you did for me was no good

I didn't lose your money, I didn't lose your money
Oh no your money just lost, you brought me up this way
When just a little bit of love might have changed my ways

Some folks help the needy, me I just help myself
And if I shared with you now, it would steadily decrease my wealth

And if I saw you on the streets with worn out shoes upon your feet
I wouldn't spare you the prices of a cup of tea
I know you brought me from the gutter, helped me earn my bread
And butter but I have a lousy memory

I didn't lose your money, oh no, I didn't lose your money
I didn't lose your money, oh no, your money just lost
You brought me up this way when just a little bit of love
Might have changed my ways

When just a little bit and just a little bit and just a little bit
And just a little bit and just a little bit of love, love
Love, love could have changed my ways
