I've been doin' lots of time

Workin' on Love's assembly line

And now it's kinda hard to make my way

Love has made for a hell of a day


Hell of a day is what love has made

They never said love was an easy trade

Say, if you don't mind, I'll be on my way

Well, Love has made for a hell of a day


So you can get on with your life, baby

And I can get on with mine

There ain't no time for heartbreak or sorrow

You can't be too concerned over spilled wine


Hell of a day is what love has made

They never said love was an easy trade

And now it's kinda hard to make my way

Love has made for a hell of a day


(4 measures instrumental)


I've been workin' with the heart's metallurgy

And the nights have become cold

In this world, a lonesome feelin'

You can't turn silver into gold


Hell of a day, yeah, is what love has made

They never said love was an easy trade

And now it's kinda hard to make my way

Love has made for a hell of a day


Hell of a day is what love has made

They never said love was an easy trade

Say, if you don't mind, I'll be on my way

Well, Love has made for a hell of a day
