Lyrics
Material Girl
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Some boys kiss me, some boys hug me, I think they're okay
If they don't give me proper credit, I just walk away
They can beg and they can plead, but they can't see the light, that's right
'Cause the boy with the cold hard cash is always Mister Right,
'cause we are living in a material world, and I am a material girl
You know that we are living in a material world And I am a material girl
Some boys romance, some boys slow dance
That's all right with me, if they can't raise my interest then I
Have to let them be
Some boys try and some boys lie but
I don't let them play, only boys who save their pennies
Make my rainy day, 'cause they are
Living in a material world, and I am a material girl
You know that we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl
Living in a material world
Boys may come and boys may go, and that's all right you see
Experience has made me rich and now they're after me,
'Cause everybody's
Living in a material world, and I am a material girl
You know that we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl
Living in a material world
