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?
We always fuss and fight
You ain't never known to be wrong
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'

I just don't like the things you're doin'
Your evil heart gonna be your ruin
When things start runnin' smooth and free
You haul right off and you pick on me
And I just don't like this kind of livin'

They say the road of love is long
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 older?
And get that chip up off your shoulder
I've told you once, I'm telling you twice
You better start to treat me nice
'Cause I just don't like this kind of livin'
