Rich and lonely
I don't wanna be rich and lonely
Because there are nuff better things inna life
Than all a the money and all a the hype
Nuff a dem rich and lonely
You can buy a yacht or a house on the highlands
With a view of the city and sea
But show me a man who's an island
Mi bredda dem never yet fail me
Good family and friends are like diamonds
Mek you shine through the darkest night
Nuh cash weh you have can't buy one
Nuff loyalty that's the price
Rich and lonely
I don't wanna be rich and lonely
Because there are nuff better things inna life
Than all a the money and all a the hype
Nuff a dem rich and lonely
Wealth star grow
You happy yet? NO!
Money can't buy contentment
When the little kids waah play
Hey...
Daddy busy night and day
Boom Boom
Mommy start call
But yuh mind small
Suh yuh treat her with resentment
Judgement will be red
Cause you have no conscience
If you're not happy,
There is no victory
So why live your dream alone?
Don't give up on the love
And we'll see
That life's a big adventure
Rich and lonely
I don't wanna be rich and lonely
Because there are nuff better things inna life
Than all a the money and all a the hype
Nuff a dem rich and lonely
The worse thing in the world
Is to have everything you wanted but feel alone
(Feel alone)
Make yourself a fortune
Then go home and make your family feel at home
(Feel at home)
Rich and lonely
I don't wanna be rich and lonely
Because there are nuff better things inna life
Than all a the money and all a the hype
Nuff a dem rich and lonely
Rich and lonely
(Rich and lonely
(Rich and lonely)
(Oh )
I don't wanna be rich and lonely
(No)
Because there are nuff better things inna life
Than all a the money and all a the hype
Nuff a dem rich and lonely
No no no no no
Family and friends yuh know are not just important, they're everything
No success or fame can replace the real pleasures of life
Trust me
The Carey James
