[Verse 1]
Grow up, children, don't you suffer
At the hands of one another
Is like a sleeping demon
Listen, can you hear him weeping?
Tears of joy and tears of sorrow
He buys love to sell tomorrow

[Chorus]
My life ain't no holiday
I've been through the point of no return
I've seen what a man can do
And I've seen all the hate of a woman too

[Verse 2]
Feel your heartbeat, lose the rhythm
He can't touch the world we live in
Life is short but love is strong
There lies a hope that I have found
And if you try, you'll find it too
Remember what I'm telling you

[Chorus]
My life ain't no holiday
I'vе been through the point of no return
I've seen what a man can do
I'vе seen all the hate of a woman too
[Outro]
And they gave him away
Like in "Whistle Down the Wind"
By the look on his face
He never gave in
