Shonie came from a broken home
Her mamma sick and her daddys long gone
Got a job but it don't pay no bread
Lookin' for a man
Who's well fed

She got the low rent underground
The pad lock studio blues and the bus fare
To take her to school
She sure needs a steady man always got
a perfect plan
For you to pay up for playin' the fool

I was dreaming of a perfect love
But then I woke up to find
Truth comes crashing down
Don't matter what you do cuz

Chorus:
The rich girls will break your heart and
The poor girls will take your money
I confess and I repent for the things I've done
My soul is spent

Rich girls will break your heart and
Poor girls will take your money
I confess and I repent for the things I've done
My soul is spent
Rich girls

Don't need No Rich Girls
Don't Need No Poor Girls
Don't need No Rich Girls
Don't Need No Poor Girls
