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'

--- Instrumental ---

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'
