Rich Girls Lyrics
Suzie came wealthy family raised
Went to college all her debts were paid
Got a job down in soho
Her daddy said don't date him
He got no dough.
She had the doorman, elevator
Penthouse alligator shoes and a driver that took her to school.
She got no need for any man even if you got a plan
You'd always end up play'in the fool.
I was dream'in of a perfect union
But then I woke up to find
Truth comes crashing down
Don't matter what you do cuz tha'
Rich girls will break your heart and
Poor girls will take your money
I confess and I repent for things I've done
My soul is spent
On Rich girls
And Poor girls
Shonie came from a broken home
Her mamma sic and her daddy long gone
Got a job but it don't pay no bread
Look'in for a man
Who's well fed.
She got the low rent underground
Pad lock studio blues and a tha' bus fare
To take her to school
She sho' needs a steady man always got a perfect plan
For you to pay up for playin the fool
I was dreaming of a perfect union
But then I woke up to find
Truth comes crashing down
Don't matter what you do cuz
Rich girls will break'a your heart and
Poor girls will take'a your money
I confess and I repent for things I've done
My soul is spent
Don't need No Rich Girls
Don't Need No Poor Girls
Don't need No Rich Girls
Don't Need No Poor Girls
Went to college all her debts were paid
Got a job down in soho
Her daddy said don't date him
He got no dough.
Penthouse alligator shoes and a driver that took her to school.
She got no need for any man even if you got a plan
You'd always end up play'in the fool.
But then I woke up to find
Truth comes crashing down
Don't matter what you do cuz tha'
Poor girls will take your money
I confess and I repent for things I've done
My soul is spent
On Rich girls
And Poor girls
Her mamma sic and her daddy long gone
Got a job but it don't pay no bread
Who's well fed.
Pad lock studio blues and a tha' bus fare
To take her to school
She sho' needs a steady man always got a perfect plan
For you to pay up for playin the fool
But then I woke up to find
Truth comes crashing down
Don't matter what you do cuz
Poor girls will take'a your money
I confess and I repent for things I've done
My soul is spent
Don't Need No Poor Girls
Don't Need No Poor Girls

A not on the lyrics. Live, Fitz is singing "I was dreaming of the perfect union", I think he's done that for a long time. But on the album it's "I was dreaming of the perfect love". Easy to hear just a not for those of you interested enough!

@fenderh1strat I've never heard this song live so I thought that was wrong. But thanks for clarifying.

This song is about a man who has learned that he does not want a woman in his life. Because if she's rich, her dad won't let her date him, and if she's poor, she'll just use him for his money.
