I have heard this song for over 20 years, yet I STILL cannot decipher the lyrics. Here is how I have sung it:

....So many have paid to see
What, you think, you'll get her for free,
The woman is wild, and she can turn
by the world of Jacques Cousteau.

So many have paid to see
what you think you're getting for free
The woman is wild a she cat tamed by the purr of a jaguar

Money's a matter....and you ain't gonna get too far.

Money's the matter, if you're in it for love, you ain't gonna get too far.

[Chorus]

I wouldn't if I were you.
I know what she can do.
She's deadly mad, and she could really
whip yo' butt, uh huh

I wouldn't if I were you
I know what she can do
She's deadly man, she could really rip your world apart
Mind over matter, although her beauty is there,
Her beast in in the heart.

[Chorus]

PLEASE help my get the lyrics right. It sounds like a VERY interesting song; I just want to understand what they are saying.
