Lyrics:

Now you know this life ain't easy
And you've got to try to please me
You got me doing what you want
When you ask of me
You gotta love me, baby don't tease me
You know my life ain't easy, no it ain't
You know my life ain't easy, oh no!

You hide the kindness that I need
And I've been trying so long to get free
You got me doin' what you want
When you ask of me
I gotta love you, baby, you don't love me
You know my life ain't easy, oh no!
You know my life ain't easy, no, no it ain't

You know my life ain't easy
And you've got to try to please me
When you say you'll come and see me
You gotta try
You gotta try
You gotta try, try, try, try, try

(All right, listen to this!)

Well you know this life ain't easy
And you've got to try to please me
Well some people say that this life is a bust
Well everybody got to do what they must
And then some people say that life is a test
Well you do your best, baby, I'll do the rest

You know this life ain't easy, oh no
You know my life ain't easy, oh no
You know my life ain't easy, oh no it ain't
No, no, no, no
No, no it ain't
Oh yeah
