[Verse] One day a rich man asked a poor man What keeps you going The poor man said You see that woman over there? She'll always love me She keeps me going The rich man said What would you do for that woman? The poor man said I'd do anything for her The rich man said Would you walk on hot coals? The poor man said Absolutely The rich man said Would you jump out of a moving car? The poor man said I'd jump out of a moving plane The rich man said Would you lay your life down for her? The poor man said Absolutely The rich man said Then she has your respect The poor man said No The rich man said Then you don't love her The poor man said Of course I do But she doesn't ask me to do those things I just love her I respect her The rich man said That doesn't make any sense The poor man said Then you don't understand love Or respect
