Love on a Budget

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Baby come on

Verse 1

Friday night and the phone don't ring

Sitting here broke with a beat-up wing

Nobody told me love costs a buck

Now I'm stuck in the dark with bad luck

Pre-Chorus

You said meet me down at the candy store

I showed up early then you showed up sore

Chorus

Love on a budget that's the way it goes

Can't afford the flowers so I bring the prose

Love on a budget sing it loud and low

My pockets are empty but my heart's the show

Post-Chorus

Baby baby baby

Oh oh oh

Love on a budget

Verse 2

Went to the diner with a shiny dime

Split a milkshake and we had a time

Gave you my letterman not my last

Promises cheap but they always last

Pre-Chorus

You laughed real hard and you held my arm

Forgot every penny set off the alarm

Chorus

Love on a budget that's the way it goes

Can't afford the flowers so I bring the prose

Love on a budget sing it loud and low

My pockets are empty but my heart's the show

Post-Chorus

Baby baby baby

Oh oh oh

Love on a budget

Bridge

Someday I'll make the big old score

But tonight I got you that's what chords are for

Chorus

Love on a budget that's the way it goes

Can't afford the flowers so I bring the prose

Love on a budget sing it loud and low

My pockets are empty but my heart's the show

Outro

Baby baby baby

Oh oh oh

Yeah
