Charted: 1985 Peaked at #2 (2 weeks) Sire -- 29083 From the album "Like A Virgin" Written by Peter Brown / Robert Rans B-Side "Pretender" 45 RPM -- 3:56
Some boys kiss me Some boys hug me I think they're ok If they don't give me proper credit I just walk away
They can beg and they can plead But, they can't see the light That's right 'Cause, the boy with the cold hard cash Is always Mr. Right
Chorus: 'Cause, we're living in a material world And I am a material girl You know that we are living in a material world And I am a material girl
Some boys romance Some boys slow dance That's alright with me If they can't raise my interest Then I have to let them be
Some boys try and Some boys lie, but I don't let them play (no way) Only boys that save their pennies Make my rainy day
Chorus x 2
Living in a material world (4 x)
Boys may come and boys may go And that's alright, you see Experience has made me rich And now they're after me 'Cause, everybody's
Chorus
A material, a material, a material, a material girl
Living in a material world (4 x)
