Honey Cone - Girls It Ain't Easy lyrics

It ain't easy, girls, it ain't easy To keep the man you love satisfied (No, no) It ain't easy, girls, it ain't easy To keep the man you love by your side A woman's work is never done Even if it stops, it goes on and on We work our fingers to the bone Gotta be home every time he'd phone Sometimes the goin' gets a little rough It seems our best ain't good enough Keeps you losin' sleep Seven days a week, yeah It ain't easy, girls, it ain't easy To keep the man you love satisfied (No, no) It ain't easy, girls, it ain't easy To keep the man you love by your side To keep him happy, you must sacrifice Be ready and willing to face lonely nights Do all you can and though he seems ungrateful Love your man true though he seems unfaithful But when his hope is gone and life gets him down That's when he'll say he needs you around It's hard to live with him Hard to live without him, hey It ain't easy Hey, hey, hey! It ain't easy, girls, it ain't easy It ain't easy, girls, it ain't easy You got to baby them with understandin' When understandin' is what they need We try to give them respect All that we get is their neglect But when they're troubled, they need our love and care No matter when, we gotta be right there In between the cryin' Gotta keep tryin', yeah It ain't easy, girls, it ain't easy No, no It ain't easy, girls, it ain't easy
