Oh baby, baby, you're driving me crazy, I can't take no more Running around, breakin' me down, my head's down on the floor I woke up this morning, my gun in your hand, the devil dancing in your eyes You brush wet lace 'cross my face and love me till my well ran dry You say you need me, but then you bleed me, oh what's a poor boy to do
Chorus: Love ain't easy, love ain't easy, love ain't easy, love ain't easy for me
Oh honey, honey, you steal my money, take it to the candy store You wine and dine them, then you blind them, when you're walking out the door I'm wasted tonight, with a knife in my heart, I'll never make it out alive You slide back in my world again and cry me a river of lies Oh please have mercy, she said, hold me in your arms Oh what's a poor boy to do
