You put my love on top Beyoncé – Love on Top
You put my love on top, top, top, top, top
You put my love on top Beyoncé – Love on Top

If I ain't got nothing, I got you
If I ain't got something, I don't give a damn
'Cause I got it with you
I don't know much about algebra
But I know one plus one equals two
And it's me and you
That's all we'll have when the world is through Beyoncé – 1+1
If I ain't got something, I don't give a damn
'Cause I got it with you
I don't know much about algebra
But I know one plus one equals two
And it's me and you
That's all we'll have when the world is through Beyoncé – 1+1

If everything is going bad for Beyonce, it doesn’t matter because at the end of the day she has a man who loves her. Beyonce may not be a genius at math, but she knows that the endless love her and her man share will give her everything she needs.
These lyrics riff on lines from Sam Cooke’s “(What A) Wonderful World”:
Don’t know much about geography
Don’t know much trigonometry
Don’t know much about algebra
Don’t know what a slide rule is for
But I do know one and one is two
And if this one could be with you
What a wonderful world this would be
In both tracks, the singer professes love and asks for it to be returned. But where Cooke says the love can help him look at the outside world as wonderful, Beyoncé turns the message inside out: her love will outlast even the world around her. The world at war, she says, has something to learn from her affection, implying that the world is not wonderful, but can be with if we emulate her love.

Every music artist wants their music to be remembered for a long time. Beyonce puts her soul into her music, and when she leaves this world she wants to know that she left behind something positive.

It’s missing the high note in the middle of the chorus
