[Verse 1]
I'm not easy to please
Birds and honeybees
You can't tempt out monkeys from high up in the trees
I'll make you blue, I'll make you bad
Oh, I'll make you mad

[Chorus]
You got bruises on your knees
Scratches on your hands
Ain't you heard Frankie singing, "walk like a man"
Bad bruised knees
You're crawling with your hands
Ain't you heard Frankie say, "walk like a man"
Run if you can, run if you can

[Verse 2]
I throw things away when they get too old
There's coals in the fire but I'm still dead cold
I'll make you hurt, yeah, I cause you pain
Oh, every day
Oh, as you say

[Chorus]
You got bruises on your knees
Scratches on your hands
Ain't Frankie ever told you to, "walk like a man"
Bad bruised knees
You're crawling with your hands
Ain't you heard Frankie singing, "walk like a man"
Run if you can, run if you can

[Bridge]
You're underneath my hand
I beg you, take it, please
Don't you understand
Blew you underneath my hand
Baby, please

[Chorus]
You got bruises on your knees
Scratches on your hands
Ain't Frankie ever told you to, "walk like a man"
Bad bruised knees
You're crawling with your hands
Ain't you heard Frankie singing, "walk like a man"
Run if you can, run if you can
