Love don't hang out in a grand hotel
Got no satin sheets, got no service bell
Ain't in Bel Air on some big old yacht

Ain't in a beach house on Monserrat
There's a house on the edge of town
It's a little old, it's a little run down

Full of laughter and tears and toys
Crazy things only love enjoys


I know where love lives
I know where love lives
She's sitting on the back steps in the evening air

With sea green eyes and her chestnut hair
You keep your mansions of gold, buddy; I don't care
'Cause I know where love lives


You keep all that you fortune brings
All your fancy words, all your precious things

No matter what all your money buys
It's in the arms of love that true treasure lies


I know where love lives
I know where love lives
She's sitting on the back steps in the evening air

With sea green eyes and her chestnut hair
You keep your mansions of gold, buddy; I don't care
'Cause I know where love lives


I know where love lives
Keep your mansions of gold

Keep your mansions of gold
