Lyrics

i've got two islands in the bahamas, got some land in the south of france, i am gonna get me a house out on malibu beach, just as soon as i get the chance, though i ain't got a driver's license, i've got a rolls and five limousines, i've got every little thing that money can buy, and i guess that i am a man of means, well, i've got a lot of things, baby, in this world, but i can't get my hands on you, once i loaned out a whole lot of money, to a man who i called my friend, and he skipped town without paying me back, well, he'll never pull that trick again, and though it ain't always been this easy, i worked hard to get to this spot, and all that it took was determination, to get all the things that i've got, you see, i've got a lot of things, baby, in this world, but i can't get my hands on you, no, no, no, hey!, well, i guess if i had to admit it, in my life, i've done okay, whenever they told me that i couldn't get something, i went out and found me a way, but with you, it's a different story, baby, you just won't give me a break, how am i gonna face all of my friends, my whole reputation's at stake, you see, i've got a lot of things, baby, in this world, but i can't get my hands on you, oh, i can't do it, baby, no, no, no, can't get a hand on you
