I just don't like this kind of living I'm tired of doing all the giving I give my all and sit and yearn And get no loving in return And I just don't like this kind of living
Why do we stay together? We always fuss and fight You ain't never known to be wrong And I ain't never been right
Tell me where you think we're going 'Cos I ain't got no way of knowing When things go wrong, you go your way You leave me here to pay and pay And I just don't like this kind of living
I just don't like the things you're doing Your evil heart will be your ruin When things start running smooth and free You haul right off and you pick on me And I just don't like this way of living
They say the road of love is long It's rocky, and it's rough But if this road don't start to get smooth I've traveled it long enough
Why don't you act a little older And get that chip up off your shoulder? I told you once Now I'll tell you twice You better start to treat me nice 'Cos I just don't like this way of living
