No I'm not the type of girl to say
Baby, if you wanna play you pay
No way, I'm not that kind
Oh yeah -- I've got love on my mind
Down in the quarter
Out on the corner, walkin' the line
They say romance without finance
That's a crime
Mercy me, heavens above!
What's money got to do with love?
I need a squeeze without a doubt
Won't put my hold on your bank account
I need a lover
under the cover of the night
And if it's romance without finance
That's all right
Let us give you some free advice
Say that love must have its price
Can't you see girl, you're wastin your time
That boy, he ain't got a dime
They don't know if your love is true
They don't see what I see in you
You got a touch, feelin' so fine
I don't care about your bottom line
Down in the quarter
Almighty dollar's on their minds
But I'll take romance over finance
Every time
I don't care what your daddy do
I don't care if your blood is blue
Legal tender's bringin' me down
It ain't what makes my world go round
I need a lover
Seens me some tender eyes that shine
I'll take my romance over finance
Every time
Romance without finance
And I'll take romance over finance
Every time

Little Feat è un gruppo rock statunitense formatosi a Los Angeles nel 1969 da Lowell George (cantautore, cantante e chitarrista) e Bill Payne (tastierista). La band ha saputo mescolare influenze blues, R and B, country, funk e rock and roll in un sound originale e riconoscibile. Tra i brani più famosi si ricordano "Dixie Chicken", "Willin'" e "Fat Man in the Bathtub". Dopo lo scioglimento del gruppo nel 1979, a seguito della morte di George, Little Feat è tornato a esibirsi nove anni dopo, continuando ad incidere nuovi album fino ad oggi. Tra gli album più importanti si annovera "Waiting for Columbus" (1978), considerato un classico del rock americano.
