Don't judge me mama
Don't tell me what I've done wrong
It's a hard business
It's a hard business
To make it on your own
Don't judge me papa
If I can't handle the things in my head
'Cos It's a hard business
Such a hard business
Walking on the edge
I've got nothing, no one in my life
So how can I lose again
Got my feet in muddy water
But I'm gonna find that road again
So I'll be taking care of business
'Cos I know what I'm looking for
If been workin every hour god gives to man
But I still see the same closed door
I got nothing but trouble in my life
But I feel I got a lot to give
Every day I build a new world
But I've had no one to build it with
I've been looking for a woman to share my hopes
And I know I ain't a patch on you
And I've been thinking a woman's god's gift to man
Are you thinkin the same way too?
So don't leave me mama
Don't make me go on alone
'Cos it's a hard business
Yes it's a hard business
Ooh
So don't leave me papa
And my believe in myself is gone
'Cos it's a hard business
Such a hard business
Tell me it's a hard business
Being on my own |
