You should know that it's cracked like thirsty ground
You should know that I've hung it all around
I've been through places you wouldn't want to go
Lost some love passin' through the tolls

It ain't easy to please me
And you will surely tire
That's why I'm leavin'
No trippin' on your wire
I'll be lonely, baby
Now when I do retire
And it's cold where you were sleepin'
And now my heart's for hire
Hire

You shoulda known when I was thinner than your sight
You shoulda known the way I held that kitchen knife
And the way I was falling to the ground
You found out when you heard that ugly sound
Heard that ugly sound

It ain't easy to please me
And you will surely tire
That's why I'm leavin'
No trippin' on your wire
I'll be lonely, baby
Now when I do retire
And it's cold where you were sleepin'
And now my heart's for hire

Have I loved enough
Have I loved too much
Am I about as heart for hire
No pitting polish scrub
