I just don't like this kind of livin' I'm tired of doin' all the givin'

I give my all and sit and yearn and get no lovin' in return

And I just don't like this kind of livin'

Why do we stay together if we always fuss and fight

You ain't never done to be wrong and I ain't never been right

Tell me where you think we're goin' cause I ain't got no way of knowin'

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 livin'

[ steel ]

I just don't like the things you're doin' 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 livin'

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 bit older and get that chip off of your shoulder

Well I told you once now I'll tell you twice you better start to treatin' me nice

Cause I just don't like this kind of livin'
