Old rocksteady tune I cannot locate

I heard an amazing track on a podcast and cannot locate it anywhere.

The basic riddim sounds very similar to Toots' 5446 Was My Number, and the lyrical content was a back and forth conversation between the lead singer and the backups, something along the following:

What is it, that can make you happy, it can make you sad...
It must be money (no)
It is lovvvve, it is lovvvve


Anyone who can think of this, I'm forever in your debt!

Many thanks

It's gotta be "What Is It" by The Consummates. It's on the Soul Jazz Records compilation "Studio One Groups".
