I wrote this song after a guy I really liked decided he's too busy "chasin' that papa'" to be in a relationship. Money ain't everything, baby, money ain't everything...
Great point you're making, Kdah, and in a convincing manner vocally. Were I writing the lyric, I would probably mention money slightly less and go to metaphor slightly more and point to romance in a slightly stronger way. Simple but effective guitar accompaniment, though of course richer instrumentation could make this song sing out in a fuller voice -- as could a bridge perhaps expressing the singer's passion and sense of loss if her message went unheeded, set with some minor chords to get across the "I mean business" seriousness of the message. (Just a thought.) Who knows? Retooled somewhat, could be a hit.
