Song: "Can't Buy me Love" by The Beatles

Here are the lyrics (try singing along!)

Can't buy me love

Can't buy me love, love

Can't buy me love

I'll buy you a diamond ring my friend

If it makes you feel all right

I'll get you anything my friend

If it makes you feel all right

Cause I don't care too much for money

For money can't buy me love

I'll give you all I've got to give

If you say you love me too

I may not have a lot to give

but what I've got I'll give to you

For I don't care too much for money

For money can't buy me love

Can't buy me love

Everybody tells me so

Can't buy me love

No, no, no, no

Say you don't need no diamond ring

And I'll be satisfied

Tell me that you want those kind of things

that money just can't buy

For I don't care too much for money

For money can't buy me love

Can't buy me love

Everybody tells me so

Can't buy me love

No, no, no, no

Say you don't need no diamond ring

And I'll be satisfied

Tell me that you want those kind of things

that money just can't buy

For I don't care too much for money

Cause money can't buy me love

Ooh, can't buy me love, love

Can't buy me love, no
