[C#] [F#]
[C#] [F#] Oh, listen to me people, [C#] I ain't got time to think about money or what [F#] it's about.
[C#] And I ain't got time to sit down and wonder what makes a bird fly.
And I don't have the time to think about what makes [F#] a flower grow.
[C#]
And I've never given a second [D#m] thought to where [F#] the river [C#] flows.
Oh yeah, [D#m] and I ain't [F#] got time [C#] for nothing else.
[F#] Oh [C#] yeah, I ain't got time to discuss the weather, how long it's [D#m] gonna last.
[C#] And I ain't got time to do no studying once I get [F#] out of class.
Telling [C#] you I'm [F#] just a fella [C#] that's got a one [F#]-track mind.
And [C#] when it comes to thinking [F#] about anything but my baby, [D#m] I just don't have [C#] the time.
Oh yeah, [D#m] and I ain't [F#] got time for [C#] nothing else.
Don't you know I'm too busy thinking about my baby.
But [D#m] I [F#] ain't got time for [C#] nothing else.
Oh yeah, [F#] oh [C#] yeah, yeah.
There's
[A#m]
[C#] [F#] [C#] a diamond and pearl in [F#] the [C#] world, but never that's her [F#] worth.
No, no, [C#] she's some kind of wonderful.
People tell you I've got heaven right [F#] here on earth.
[A#m] I'm just a fella [C#] with a one-track [F#] mind.
And [C#] when it comes to [F#] thinking about anything but my [D#m] baby, I [F#] just don't have the [C#] time.
Oh, and I ain't got time for nothing else.
You know I'm too busy thinking about my baby.
[F#] And I ain't got time [C#] for nothing else.
Oh, just thinking about my baby.
Ain't [F#] got time for nothing else.
You know [C#] that's wrong.
Just [F#] thinking about my baby.
[C#]
Ain't got time for [F#] nothing else.
She's never on [C#] the phone.
