JENNIFER LOPEZ - LOVE DON'T COST A THING
Think You Gotta Keep Me Iced, You Don't
Think I'm Gonna Spend Your Cash, I Won't
Even If You Were Broke
My Love Don't Cost A Thing
Think I Wanna Drive Your Benz, I Don't
If I Wanted Floss I Got My Own
Even If You Were Broke
My Love Don't Cost A Thing
When You Rolled Up In Th Escalade
Saw That Dub You Gave To The Valet
Knew That It Was Garne When You Looked At Me
Pulling Up Your Sleeve So I Could See The Rolley Bling
Saw You Later In The Corner Booth
Raising Up A Toast So I Would Notice You
But Your Heart's A Mess
Think You Oughta Know
Doesn't Matter If You're Balling Out Of Control
All That Matters Is
That You Treat Me Right
Give Me All The Things I Need
That Money Can't Buy, Yeah
Think You Gotta Keep Me Iced, You Don't
Think I'm Gonna Spend Your Cash, I Won't
Even If You Were Broke
My Love Don't Cost A Thing
Think I Wanna Drive Your Benz, I Don't
If I Wanted Floss I Got My Own
Even If You Were Broke
My Love Don't Cost A Thing
When I Tool A Chance Thought You'd Understand
Baby, Credit Cards Aren't Romance
So You're Tryin' To Buy What's Already Yours
What I Need From You Is Not Available In Stored
Seen A Side Of You That I Really Feel
Doing Way Too Much, Never Keep It Real
If It Doesn't Change, Gotta Hit The Road
Now I'm Leaving, Where's My Keys? I've Got To Go
All That Matters Is
That You Treat Me Right
Give Me All The Things I Need
That Money Can't Buy, Yeah
Think You Gotta Keep Me Iced, You Don't
Think I'm Gonna Spend Your Cash, I Won't (Baby)
Even If You Were Broke
My Love Don't Cost A Thing (Love Don't Cost A Thing)
Think I Wanna Drive Your Benz, I Don't
If I Wanted Floss I Got My Own
Even If You Were Broke
My Love Don't Cost A Thing (Love Don't Cost A Thing)
A Thi-I-I-Ing, A Thi-I-I-Ing, A Thi-I-I-Ing
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
You Can Think The Money That You Make (That You Make)
Can Substitute The Time You Take (The Time You Take)
Take The Keys Here To My Heart
Then You Can Win My Heart And Get What's In My Heart
(Don't Cost A Thing)
I Think You Need To Take Some Time
To Show Me That Your Love Is True
There's More Than Dollar Signs In You
Then You Can Win My Heart And Get What's In My Heart
Think You Gotta Keep Me Iced, You Don't
Think I'm Gonna Spend Your Cash, I Won't
Even If You Were Broke
My Love Don't Cost A Thing (Love Don't Cost A Thing)
Think I Wanna Drive Your Benz, I Don't
If I Wanted Floss I Got My Own
Even If You Were Broke
My Love Don't Cost A Thing
(Even If You Were Broke, My Love Don't Cost A Thing)
Think You Gotta Keep Me Iced, You Don't
Think I'm Gonna Spend Your Cash, I Won't
Even If You Were Broke
My Love Don't Cost A Thing
Think I Wanna Drive Your Benz, I Don't
If I Wanted Floss I Got My Own
Even If You Were Broke
My Love Don't Cost A Thing
Think You Gotta Keep Me Iced, You Don't
Think I'm Gonna Spend Your Cash, I Won't
Even If You Were Broke
My Love Don't Cost A Thing
Think I Wanna Drive Your Benz, I Don't
If I Wanted Floss I Got My Own
Even If You Were Broke
My Love Don't Cost A Thing
SONG FACTS
Writer(s): Damon Sharpe, Greg Lawson, Georgette Franklin, Jeremy Monroe. Amille D. Harris
Producer(s): Ric Wake, Richie Jones, Cory Rooney
Lopez Set Up An Internet Camera On Her Website Where Fans Could Watch Her Make This Album. The Album Was Her Transformation From Jennifer Lopez To "J-Lo."
Lopez Appeared In The Movie The Wedding Planner A Few Months After This Was Released. This Song Plays Over The Closing Credits.
Jennifer Performed This On Cbs Before Super Bowl Xxxv As Part Of The Pregame Coverage.
During The Album's Production, Lopez Was In A Relationship With Puff Daddy (As He Was Then Known), Which Led To Speculation That The Song Was About Him. In The Lyrics, The Singer Is Frustrated With Her Absentee Lover, Who Would Rather Buy Her Expensive Gifts Than Spend Time With Her, Even Though "Her Love Don't Cost A Thing."
Shortly After The Single's Release In 2001, The Pair Broke Up, And Lopez Began Dating A Dancer Named Cris Judd, Whom She Met While Shooting The Video For This Song. They Married Later That Year But Divorced In 2002.
Lopez Became The First Entertainer To Have The #1 Album And Movie At The Same Time When Her Movie The Wedding Planner And Album J-Lo Both Hit #1. In 2003, A Film Called Love Don't Cost A Thing Was Released, But This Song Has Nothing To Do With It.
The J.Lo Album Knocked Off The Beatles' 1 When It Hit #1 In The Us. The Beatles Had The Top Spot For Eight Weeks.
This Was Lopez' First And Only # 1 Hit In The Uk.
In The Video, Directed By Paul Hunter, Lopez Is Frustrated When Her Boyfriend Sends Her A Gold Bracelet Instead Of Showing Up For A Date. She Drives To The Beach, Shedding Lavish Jewelry And Accessories Along The Way (Presumably Gifts From Her Wealthy Beau), And Grooves With An All-Male Dance Team On The Sand.
Greg Lawson Was A Struggling Songwriter When He Wrote And Recorded The Track That Evolved Into This Song. With The Help Of Los Angeles-Based Songwriter/Producer Damon Sharpe And A Trio Of Other Writers, It Finally Became A Hit-Worthy Tune.
Lopez Performed This On Saturday Night Live In The February 11, 2001 Episode.
This Was Used On The Mtv Animated Series Daria In The 2001 Episode "Fat Like Me."
