(Rod Stewart / Gary Grainger)
|
Been in pain and I've been in shame
|
But ain't love a bitch
|
I been in fights, locked away for nights
|
But ain't love a bitch
|
I been tailed, impaled, strung up
|
and nailed and left without a stitch
|
I been scratched 'n' taxed 'n' finally axed
|
But ain't love a bitch
|
|
Oh I didn't understand till I was seventeen
|
She took me way upstairs and she wiped me clean
|
Oh I didn't realize she made a first class fool out of me
|
Oh Maggie if you're still out there the rest is history
|
|
You're all alone in the freezing cold
|
by the underground
|
Your hands are numb and you're feeling dumb
|
cos you been let down
|
You thought you were rough and kinda tough
|
and maybe out of reach
|
You're acting chic, playing hide 'n' seek
|
But ain't love a bitch
|
|
Oh I must state right here I been there before
|
My eyes were closed and so my friends
|
I still don't know the score
|
Oh don't underestimate the strength of it
|
It may be unwise to analyze even the cause of it
|
|
You're driving home late one night and on the radio
|
Comes an old familiar song you used to know so well
|
(you know a lot about that)
|
Oh I can't comprehend this thing called love
|
Maybe it's a matter of fact I just can't grow up
|
Deep down ain't we all a little juvenile
|
All I really wanna know is there one sweet angel
|
that can make me smile
|
|
Ain't love a bitch
|
|
Torrential rains, wars and hurricanes
|
I wouldn't budge an inch
|
Your rent's unpaid and your team lose again
|
But ain't love a bitch
|
You can lose your job, your home and your health
|
But ain't love a bitch
|
Take it or leave it some day you'll feel it
|
'cos love is the bitch
|
|
Ain't love the bitch, ain't love a bitch
|
Ain't love a bitch, ain't love a bitch
|
Ain't love a bitch
|
