Don't judge me, mama,
Don't tell me that I've done wrong.
It's a hard business,
It's a hard business to make it on your own... (own... own... own...)
Don't judge me, papa,
If I can't handle the things in my head.
Because it's a hard business,
Such a hard business walking on the edge.
I got nothing and no-one in my life,
So how can I lose again?
Got my feet in muddy water,
But I'm gonna find that road again.
So I'll be taking care of business,
Coz I know what I'm looking for.
Oh, I've been working every hour God gives to man,
But I still see the same closed door...
(Yeah...)
(Ah...)
I've got nothing but trouble in my life.
But I feel I've got a lot to give.
Every day I try to build a new world,
But I've had no-one to build it with.
Oh I've been looking for a woman to share my hopes,
But I know I ain't a patch on you.
And I've been thinking that a woman's God's gift to man,
Are you thinking the same way too?
So don't leave me, mama,
Don't make me go on alone.
Because it's a hard business,
Yes it's a hard business, oooh...
Don't leave me, papa,
When my belief in myself is gone.
Because it's a hard business,
Such a hard business, ooh...
