One Room Paradise lyrics

by

Aretha Franklin


[Verse 1]
I don’t need no diamonds (She don’t need)
And I don’t need no money (She don’t need, she don’t)
Some people live in castles with sixty or seventy rooms (She don’t)
Some people dream about a penthouse tall or a mansion on the moon

[Chorus]
But I got me a little one room paradise
And the man I love (And the man I love)
And that’s all I need now
And the man I love (And the man I love)

[Verse 2]
Some girls are crazy about diamonds (Diamonds)
And some go wild about pearls (Go wild)
Some girls go for a lot of loot
From a checkbook that ain't hers (Sure ain't hers)

[Chorus]
But I got me a little one room paradise
And the man I love (And the man I love)
And that’s all I need now
And the man I love (And the man I love)

[Bridge]
Now, if one day he lucks up on a magic pot of gold (Pot of gold)
I wouldn't mind a little diamond ring or a fur coat for the cold (Ooh)
But if it meant I had to lose just what I've got right now (Right now)
Then I don’t need no gold anyhow (No, no, oh)
[Verse 3]
I can’t make love with no diamonds (diamonds)
Give them all to somebody else (anybody)
And what good is one hundred rooms if you’re there all by yourself (Yes, you)

[Chorus]
So I’ll take me my little one room paradise
And the man I love (And the man I love)
Well, that’s all I need now
And the man I love (And the man I love)

[Outro]
I don’t need no diamonds (She don’t need no diamonds)
Said I don’t need no money (She don’t need no money, she don’t)
