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
