And I know that it's for real
Love is simple, love is free
I ain't got no gold
And she puts her arms around me
We dance out here in the moonlit sky
I ain't got no diamonds
I ain't got no gold
And girl, you know I ain't got no gold, yeah
Hey, I'll tell her it's alright
But girl, I got you here to hold
When you find one thing that matters
Far beyond our selfish wonders
I ain't got no diamonds
But girl, I got you here to hold
But it pales beside her light
I ain't got no diamonds
Girl, you know I ain't got no gold
I ain't never been a rich man
I ain't got no diamonds
And my baby's love is with me
But girl, I got you here to hold
I ain't never been a rich man
And that moment, you will see
Girl, you know I ain't got no gold, no, baby
I ain't never been a rich man
