Love somebody
Ooh yeah
Ooh yeah
Once upon a time I was young and free
Living in the place
Kingston 13
Me and Ricky played in the morning sun
Then one bright day Ricky was gone
Yeah
Mama had 11 of us at home
But daddy always come and go
He'd always promise to treat her right
But still she used to cry alone at night
So I told my mom one day I'd buy
Her all the things she need in life
She took my hand and then she smiled
She said son remember this in life
'Cause
No cash, no diamonds
Can't make you real happy
'Cause at the end of the day
We all want to love somebody
No cars, no fame
Can't take you through the father's gates
'Cause at the end of the day
We all want to love somebody
Yeah, yeah
Now that I'm a man with a family
I'm working real hard to make ends meet
Living in the space of reality
Giving thanks and praise to the almighty
I see people living fancy lives
But still they're not fulfilled inside
I'm glad reality stuck with me
I remember the words mama said to me
Son
No cash, no diamonds
Can't make you real happy
'Cause at the end of the day
We all want to love somebody
No cars, no fame
Can't take you through the father's gates
'Cause at the end of the day
We all want to love somebody
Yeah
We all spend our lives chasing vanity
To achieve happiness
When all of the time
Right before our eyes
Happiness comes from the people in our lives
That is how I know
No cash, no diamonds
Can't make you real happy
'Cause at the end of the day
We all want to love somebody
No cars, no fame
Can't take you through the father's gates
'Cause at the end of the day
We all want to love somebody
I tell you once again
At the end of the day
We all want to love somebody
Ooh yeah, true, true, true
No cash, no diamonds
Can't make you real happy
'Cause at the end of the day
We all want to love somebody
Yes, yes, now
'Cause no cars, no fame
Can't take you through the father's gates
'Cause at the end of the day
We all want to love somebody
Oh yes, yes, yes, now
No cash, no diamonds
Can't make you real happy
'Cause at the end of the day
We all want to love somebody
