Some people live for the fortune   Some people live just for the fame   Some people live for the power, yeah   Some people live just to play the game      Some people think that the physical things   Define what's within   And I've been there before but that life's a bore   So full of the superficial      Some people want it all   But I don't want nothing at all   If it ain't you, baby   If I ain't got you, baby      Some people want diamond rings   Some just want everything   But everything means nothing   If I ain't got you, yeah      Some people search for a fountain   That promises forever young   Some people need three dozen roses   And that's the only way to prove you love him      Hand me the world on a silver platter   And what good would it be?   With no one to share   With no one who truly cares for me      Some people want it all   But I don't want nothing at all   If it ain't you, baby   If I ain't got you, baby      Some people want diamond rings   Some just want everything   But everything means nothing   If I ain't got you, you, you      Some people want it all   But I don't want nothing at all   If it ain't you, baby   If I ain't got you, baby      Some people want diamond rings   Some just want everything   But everything means nothing   If I ain't got you, yeah      If I ain't got you with me, baby   Said nothing in this whole wide world don't mean a thing   If I ain't got you with me, baby
